Farmers to receive

announced Monday that several
farmers from Morrow County will
receive credits for a chemical ap
plicators class they took early Iasi
year, ending an ongoing dispute bet
ween local farmers and the Oregon
Dv|>aitmcnl of AgiisultufC
Those who attended the class will
now he able to apply those credits
toward their chemical applicator
licenses
Last year, several local
agriculturalists voluntarily attended
classes on the safe application of
chemicals, to meet requirements
made by the Department of
Agriculture However, the agency
refused to give credit to the tanners
because they weren't set up tor the
program
"It's a simple matter of common
sense.” said Nelson, "and one that
I hope has been resolved Tom
Pointer. Virginia Gneh and Stephen
Hill came to Salem to see me about
this, and now the Agriculture
Department is coming around I
hope that everyone who look that
class comes forward now and claims
credit ”
After discussions with Nelson, the
Department of Agnculturc agreed to
review the course and give credits,
agreeing that the farmers should n««
have to lake the course again simp
ly because the new program was not
yet set up
