Will mining impact farming?

To the editor:

After reading Casey Ressler's article about agriculture and tourism I remembered years ago hearing that there already are poisons in some farm fields. Do you suppose that coal dust from one or many coal mines may gradually take fields out of production? This could help destroy these two constantly growing local industries. It is a gorgeous Valley to drive through and live in. Will tourists come to see what coal dust does to our way of life?
