FLETCHER’S CORRAL BY ROGER FLETCHER lx Malheur County Agent In Oregon all youth under 18 years of age, according to the Wage and Hour Commission of the State of Oregon, must have work permits except for agricultural employment. An agri cultural permit, however, is required for farm work that involves the operation of, or riding on, a tractor or other power-driven farm equipment. A permit, on the other hand, is not required for youth to work on his home farm, or when working for his parents, grandparents, uncle or aunt or brother or sister. A written agreement between parents and farmer for youth living and working on a farm is likewise permis sible if the agreement 1s approved and filed by the Wage and Hour Commission. An agricultural work permit ployment of youth under 16 to is required for youth under handle certain chemicals, use a 18 years of age to operate blasting agent, serve as flagman power driven farm ma for aircraft, drive a truck or chinery such as tractors, com car on a public road, operate bines, balers, choppers, dig a power-driven posthole digger, gers, viners and mechanical a power-drive saw, working pickers.

S. Department of Agriculture completed a re cent survey in Malheur county to determine the population of the beet leafhopper. The survey, made at the re quest of sugar beet frowers and processors in that area, was on range lands surrounding the beet producing area where sagebrush had been removed and crested wheatgrass seeded for grazing. Entomologists found a low population of the pest on the host plants where they spend the winter. This includes a num ber of 'weeds the more pre valent of which are tumble mus tard, Russian thistle, pepper grass and flixweed. F. P. Larson, survey entom ologist with the Oregon Depart ment of Agriculture, said the entomologists turned their at tention to the newly seeded land because the host weeds are more numerous on soil that has been disturbed or where sagebrush has been removed. Sugar beet growers have had a problem from the insect which transmits a virus causingcurly top on the beets and reducing yields. Larson said because of this problem and the fact that a low population was found in this survey another cooper ative survey may be made later when the eggs of the insect have hatched. PAOS TNIITIIN — “Operating or unclogging a power-driven combine, field baler, hay conditioner, corn picker, forage harvester, or vegetable harvester.” — “Operating, feeding, or unclogging any of the following machines when power-driven: stationary baler, thresher, hul- ler, feed grinder, chopper, silo filler, or crop dryer.” -- “Feeding materials into or unclogging a roughage blow er or auger conveyor.” The County Agents Office is cooperating with the vo-agpfo- gram in the county to set up a training program for youth needing exemptions to operate the above machinery. The pro gram should be rolling within the month.
