Surplus Grains
To Be Used I'm
Drought Areas

''It is in times of emergency
that we can fully realize the
true significance of our abund-
ant agricultural produ ction."
Secretary of Agriculture OrvilIe
L. Freeman declared recently,
in extending emergency live
stock feed assistance to farm
ers in the Northern Great Plains
drought area.
THE actions taken not only
will assist the farmers in the
drought areas but also will help
to assure the Nations future
food supply. There is not more
fitting use for our plentiful sup
plies of feed grains than to
help alleviate feed shortages,
thus preventing needless liquid
alton of livestock herds and en-
suing economic disaster in the
drought area"
Livestock producers in the
designated drought areas will
be able to obtain forage and
hay Immediately from land in
conserving uses and temporari-
ly retired from production un-
der Federal Farm Programs, and
in most of the counties they
will be able to obtain feed
grains acquired under the price
support program to help feed
and maintain their basic live
stock herds.
State and County ASC Com
mittees in the designated coun-
ties in the four-State area
(Minn., Mont, N. and S. Dak.)
will discontinue sales of barley
oats and corn stored in Govern
ment bins except for sales un-
der the disaster livestock feed
program. The Minneapolis Ag-
ricultural Sterilization and Con-
servation Service Commodity
Office will sell Government
owned oats stored in the area
only under the emergency pro-
grams for Government-owned
oats and barley have been dis
continued.
According to R. Harry Will
son, chairman, Kent County
Agricultural Sterilization and
Conservation Committee, re-
ports indicate that in much of
the drought area the only graz
ing and hay supplies are on
lands that have been in con-
serving uses under land retire
ment programs. Under the Con-
servation Reserve and the feed
grain programs, no use can be
made of land diverted from pro-
duction including grazing, un-
less authorized under emerg-
ency conditions.
Because of the extreme short
age of feed supplies in the area,
County ASC Committee has
been given authority to permit
grazing and harvesting of hay
on some of these retired lands.
In such cases the request must
be made in writing by the op-
orator of the farm. A recent
amendment to the Soil Bank
Act relaxed the provisions to
permit harvesting of hay on
Conservation Reserve land in
emergency areas. Downward
adjustments will be made in
payments due farmers under
the two programs where divert
ed land is grazed or harvested
to ease the feed shortage.

RiPpon Lodge
To Be Open

Displayed in the entrance
hall is an oil painting, done
by Vallee in Missouri in
1916, of Daniel Boone. Mrs.
Black is a fifth great grand
daughter of this American
pioneer.
In recent months the
Blacks have restored the
wharf that once was used to
load Virginia tobacco aboard
sailing vessels bound for Eng
land.
The "Aviza Shallop,"
named for Mrs. Black, was
designed to be contemporary
with the original Rippon
Lodge. 1t is authentic in
every way except that con-
cealed beneath a simulated
sea chest, apparently being
carried as luggage in the
cockpit, is a 30-horsepoWer
gasoline engine.
Admiral Black and three
companions, all veterans of
several polar trips. and two
of them members of his
1894 East Base in the
Antarctic. sailed the Shallop
from the building yard on
the Eastern shore to
Neabsco Creek last summer.
Tickets for the open house
may be purchased in ad-
vance at Pohick Church or
at Rippon Lodge on the day
of the tour. Admission will
be 81 for adults. so cents
for children. In the event of
rain the tour will be held
the following Sunday May 81.

Rippon Lodge, one of the
oldest and most historic CO.
lonial estates in Northern
Virginia, will be opened next
Sunday, from l to 6 pm.
The Pohick Garden Club,
sponsor of the event, will
use the proceeds to help in
the planting of an 18th
century garden on the
grounds of Pohick Church,
Lorton, Va.
An 18th century atmos-
phere will prevail wit h

around the grounds. Guests
may ride in a stage coach
down to Blackburn's Potow-
mack Landing where along
side a restored colonial
tobacco wharf a replica of
a 30 foot 18th century
Shallop will be moored.
Rippon Lodge was built in
1725 by Richard Blackburn,
the architect who reputedly
drew the plans for the oldest
part of Mount Vernon and
for the first Falls Church.
His son, Col. Thomas Black

OverlOOkS Potomac
The rambling one-and-a-
half Storied white clapboard
house overlookS the Potomac
River between the Occoquan
Greek and Neabsco Greek.
Its brick entrance pillars are
located four miles south of
Woodbridge and one mile
south of the truck weighing
station on Route /. The
entrance may be reached by
driving south from Wash
ington on the Shirley High
way and continuing on
Route l from Woodbridge.
The original house con-
sists of five downstairs
rooms and an upper story
with gabled dormerS between
end chimneys of brick. The
famous "Jerkin roof-ends"
are characteristic of the
finest 18th century English
architecture. At about the
end of the 18th century two
rooms and another chimney
were added, across one end,
and in later years rooms
were added at each end.
All the rooms on the first
floor are accessible from the
main hall through witches
DOORS" so called from the
time when architects used
the form of the cross on
each door to keep away evil
spirits.
An interesting feature of
the old part of the house
is a hidden stairway be-
tween library and parlor
leading to a brick lined
tunnel which, in turn, exits
into a ravine some distance
from the house.
The Owners
Present owners of the
house are Rear Admiral
Richard Blackburn Black,

Black. He is a fifth great
