tbs, the 600-acre Oatlands farm is
under the management Of Lincoln
Sutphin. The farm produces
about 10 head of steers each year
for the market, plus a herd of
breeding cattle and a flock of
sheep. All feed is produced on
the farm.
Mr.. Sutphin is proud of the
records his farm has made.
I'VE don't have to be ashamed
of the crops we grow" he said
I'VE manage to keep right along
with the best in the county. We
like to feed everything we pro-

There is the matter of straw
stacks. When the grain is
Ithreshed, the straw is piled up in
the field. What is not used stands
there until it slowly decays. Then
it is spread back on the fields
Straw Is Valuable.
Mr.. Sutphin said he has turned
down offers to buy those straw
stacks, because he believes they
are more valuable. on the land
than they would be if converted
into cash.
He also likes to feed his cattle
during the winter in barns SO
that the manure can be placed
just where he wants it in his
fields.

as well as IL individual trophies
presented by horticultural socie-

Since the show is primarily for
backyard gardeners" exhibitors

not be members of any rose or

the Mems Garden Club of Mont

icant recommendations. One. that
Kentucky bluegrass seeded at the
proper rate and given the recon-
mended care gave the best lawns
His studies show that two to three
pounds of Kentucky bluegrass
seed per 1000 square feet of area
gave better results in the long run
than did heavier applications OF
seed. Secondly. that regular feed
ing is essential to the growth and
vigor of the grass.
DR.. Fred Grau, director, u. S.
Golf Association, Greens Section
wrote that in spite of the thou
sands OF dollars spent in studying
the time. quantity, and methods
of watering lawns, they have
about concluded that lawns are
better off with no watering. He
is convinced that with our close
clipping and general neglect OF
lawns we should switch to the
Merton bluegrass which is disease
resistant and more heat tolerant
than Kentucky bluegrass. He be-
lieveS it should be combined with
Meyer zoysia as soon as possible
He maintains that the studies
made at Beltsville show that these
two more nearly meet the needs
of Washington lawns than any
others.
IT the lawn owner cannot fol-
low these recommendations, he
need not worry because Digitaria
sanguinalis will keep his lawn
green every summer.

Farm at OotIonds Ranks With Top Producers

Behind one of Virginia's most
historic homes and gardens is a
farm that is producing today as
it has produced from Colonial
times.
All who visit Virginia during
garden week each spring are IA
miliar with the mansion and the
terraced gardens at Oatlands in
Loudoun County. But many fail
to realize that Oatlands house is
surrounded by a farm that has
grown fat cattle for $50 years.
The house at Oatlands and the
gardens, which were among the
first terraced gardens in this
country, were built in 1900 by
George Carter, fourth son of Rob-
ert Carter and great-grandson OF
King Carter.

W7HEN was born, great preacher by the
w name of Phillips Brooks wrote letter of
congratulation to my father on his acquisition
of son, and predicted that I'd see some re-
markable changes in my lifetime. Maybe the
good cleric, when he wrote this, was just try
ing to fill the space to the bottom of the page,
like many other writer's of obligatory letters
But anyhow he had something there, for the
changes have certainly been tremendous.
During the past two years I've been writing
book about some of them - the ways in
which life in America has altered for you and
me and all of us since 1900. Right here
propose to list what seem to me the 10 most
important changes.
Perhaps you won't agree with me. But at
any rate this list of mine is based upon long
memory and considerable study.
I. We get around lot more n0sU.
In 1900, probably half the people in the
United States had never seen an automobile.
Automobiles were the expensive and cranky
playthings of the sporting rich. There were
almost no paved roads outside the cities, or
garages or filling stations. If you wanted to
get about the country. you had to depend on
trains trolley cars, carriages - and there
were lot of places you couldn't get to easily.
If you lived on a farm only five miles
from town, it was a big event to pack the
Evening star., 1952-08-10

family into the carriage for the long drive
there. Now you think nothing of driving 20
miles to the movies, 40 miles to party, SO
miles to find good fishing place, or thou
sand miles for your vacation trip. And if
you're in hurry, you fly.
Radio, TV and national magazines extend
your range still further by bringing you the
voices and faces and personalities of people
all over. You may not be any brighter than
your grandfather was, or any wiser, but your
horizons are certainly wider.
z. The tsUO sexes are together much more.
Back in 1900 the ideal woman was the
sheltered lady, swathed not only in layer upon
layer of clothes, but in innocence and pro-
priety.
If she took job-a as millions of women
had to - she did this, it was thought, with
grave danger of having her virtue sullied by
rude men. Nowadays women not only have the
vote, which they didn't have then, but they
work in Offices as matter of course, take in
practically all the entertainments that men
do. and are at home at ball games and prize
fights and even in bars And meanwhile hus-
bands share more of the household work than
they used to. If today's wife is late for dinner,
she will (if she's lucky find it ready for her
when she gets home. There's lot more

 GOLD MINING CLAIMS
 The House Judiciary Commit tee has received Senate-ap- proved bill which would permit any owner or operator of a gold mine or gold placer operation to seek reimbursement for losses brought about by involuntary closure during World War II.
 Under the terms of the bill re- covery could be sought through suits in the Court of Claims.
 The mine-closing order, L-208, was effective October 8, 1922, and was rescinded on July l, l945.

SCHOOL LUNCH PROGRAM

Legislation to increase the ap- portionment of funds for the school lunch program in Alaska has been reported favorably to the Senate, having passed the House last October.
 School-lunch funds are appor- toned to the States and Alaska and Hawaii on basis of formu- la which takes into account the number of school age children and the per-capita income of the political division. However, un- der present law the total amount made available to Alaska and Hawaii is limited to 3 percent of the funds appropriated annually for the school-lunch program.
 Under the bill now before the upper house, Hawaii and Alaska would participate in the appor- tionment on the same basis as the States.
 If the bill now under consider ation had been in effect last year, Alaska would have received S28,O98 instead of S10,551 actual ly received in the 1851 appor- tonment.
