TAX FUNDS TO BE
 FINANCIAL RELIEF
ALMOST TWO MILLIONS
WILL BE SENT OUT BY STATE FOR SCHOOL AND PENSION
 PURPOSES.

Little Rock, Aug. 8.-Financial conditions in Arkansas, already de- clared to be in most excellent state of health" by bankers and business men generally, will receive anott.cr big lift when the State Boar8 of Edu- cation on ScpC. T. ilccts and appor- tions the S1,200,0OO now in the state treasurer's vaults to the credit of the common school fund. This fund has been accomplishing since the sheriffs started making their annual reports and will remain intact until the edu- cation board meets. Then it will be apportioned to the counties on a basis of the school population, and will immediately be returned to these counties, where it will shortly find it's way into general circulation again.
 Under the present laws the common school fund must be held until the ,>-s sst Monday in September. This re- suits in tieing up an unusually large amount of the currency of the realm during the summer season.
 About this same time the state pen sion fund, also tied up in the state treasury awaiting the approval of claims by the State Pension Board and the issuing of warrants to the pensioners, will be turned loose. There is about $60O,OOO in this fund. With the release of these two big funds, amounting to more than one and three-quarter millions of dollars, the general effect will not be long in making itself noticed.
 Incidentally, the department educa- tion announces that only 19 counties have made the report of school popu- lation. This report is required of the county examiners and superintend ents ,and is required to be in by Aug. 10. From this report the State Board of Education makes up the total school population and determines the school apportionment per capita.
 It is interesting to note that in the 19 counties so far reporting there is shown an increase of 4,237 in the school population over the number in those counties year ago. This indi- cates a total increase of between 15,- 900 and 10000, as most of the lareg counties, including Pulaski and lief ferson, are yet to report.

WEEV|LS FOUND
 IN THREE FARMS

Three Faulkner county farms in the vicinity of Mayfiower are badly invested with genuine Mexican boil weevils, according to District Agent J. c. Barnett and County Agent J. w. Earlier of the United States Demon stration Bureau, who made an inspec- tion of, the infested area yesterday. Mr. Earlier returned last night, bringing a bottle containing many specimens of the insects. He stated that the weevil is causing much dam age on the river farm of Wiley Mos ley, and were found in large numbers on the Storthz place and another ad- joining farm.
 For several years at about this sea- son boil weevils have been discovered at scattered places on the southern border of the county, but their ap- pearance has usually been too late to cause much damage. The area of infestation and number of weevils in the Mayfower district, however, is much larger than ever previously re- ported in the county.
