PINE BLUFF WILL MAKE STRONG BID
 FOR STATE FARM
Offers for Proposed Experi- mental Station Are Being
 Prepared.

An organization to secure an cX- permental station and farm for the state was perfected at meeting held at the office of Governor Brough. m Little Rock, yesterday. The station was authorized by recent act of the legislature and Governor Brough and John Little, of Conway, J. R. Alexander of Scott, John D. Eldrid2e, of Gregory and Leo. M. Andrews of Pine Bluff, as committee to secure the farm sitte for the state. Governor Brough and Martin Nelson, director of experimental works, are eX-officio members of the committee.
 Following the meeting yesterday Governor Brough telephoned Secre- tary Bloom of the Pine Bluff Chamber of Commerce and asked that he sub init to MT. Andrews an outline of the locations near here for the station and the proposition which Pine Bluff will offer as an inducement to have the station located in or near this city, The governor also stated that the committee appreciated the interest that Pine Bluff business men had manifesed in the proposed station and their offer of sites near this city for it's location.
 The bill provides for the purchase of 36O acres of land for the station and farm and ten year option on GAO acres adjoining the land purchas- ed. There is now $50,OOO available from the state for part payment on the purchase. Another division of the bill is that the land secured must be within walking distance of railroad station.
 Inspect Scott Offer.
 The commissioners will visit Scott today to inspect a tract of 1000 of tered at that place for the farm loca- tion. Scott is the home of J. k. Alex ander, father of the experimental farm bill and member of the locating com mittee and is expected to. be one of the strongest contenders for the eX- perlmental station.
 Governor Brough notified Secretary Bloom that the committee would come to Pine Bluff just as soon as data is submitted to the committee regard ing possible sies in this community.
 Pine Bluff has the best proposi- tion in the state," Secretary Bloom said yesterday "and we are going to make an attractive offer to secure the experimental station here. We not on- ly have available land but we have excellent hotel accommodations and other features that will facilitate the work of the school and provide conveniences to those who patronize the institution"
 MT Bloom said that the data to be submitted by Pine Bluff would be in the hands of the committee within a week and an early visit from the con- munity on location is anticipated.

ARMY OF REVENUE AGENTS TO FORGE
 PROHIBITION
Anticipate Trouble in Op- eration of Many Home
 Stills.

Washington, April 9.-Thrcc thou sand internal revenue agents working in specially arranged zones through out the United States will enforce prohibition after July l, according to plans announced today by the rev enue bureau Nearly 500 inspectors added to the force of 2.2S3 revenue agents already available for police regulations and the machinery for enforcement will be in working order before the date when absolute pro hibition becomes effective.
 This force of special agents will be distributed among the districts where law violation is threatened to the largest extent and special atten- ton will be paid to cities where rev enue officials look for most persist ent efforts to make whiskey illegal ly. In addition the revenue authori- ties plan to cooperate with local police and to leave the greater part of the enforcement work to these au- thorities in localities where the po- lice appear efficient. Without such plan the force of even 5000 fed eral agents would be insufficient to police the entire country.
 Expect Home Brcws.
 One aspect of liquor law violations has grown out of the hundreds of recipes for home manufacture of beer, ale, wines and even distilled liquors now being circulated in all parst of the country. Booklets and printed pamphlets of these recipes have reached revenue officials from scores of cities. 1t was explained to- day that to make liquor according to these recipes will constitute clear violations of the law, although it was admitted it would. be difficult to pre- vent the manufacture in most cases.
 Private stills can be acquired leg ally only by registration with the revenue collector OS the distlict Manufacturers of stills are under strict regulation of the revenue bu- reau, being required to pay $50 d year license fee for doing business. and to pay a specific tax of $20 on each still or worm sold. In addition, the manufacturer is required by law to report the name and address of the purchaser and the purchaser of the still is required to report the pur pose of his still and the nature of the surroundings in which it is to be placed. If d person is detected in operating still, he is lilable to pay the license fees ordinary imposed on distiller, in addition to fines and other penalties for law violation.
 Many reports of the manufacture of family stills on large scale and their sale at low prices have reached the revenue bureau but prov ed false ill most cases.

MASS MEETING TO
 DISCUSS PAVING
 EAST FIFTH AVENUE
Property Owners Enthus- iastic Over Plans for
 New Street.

A mass meeting of the property holders on East Fifth avenue will be held at the city hall Friday night at s o'clock for the purpose of discuss ing plans for the organization of an improvement district with the object in view of paving East Fifth avenue.
 A petition was circulated yesterday among the property owners, and from the number of signers, it is evident that the district will be formed speedily.
 City Collector Simon Bloom, who owns fourteen lots of East Fifth ave nue, was one of several who inter- viewed the property owners. Prom the instant enthusiasm of the people we saw he said, .I believe that Fifth avenue will be paved within a short while. We are practically sure that the majority of property holders desire the improvement, but we are going to call meeting Friday night to get together on the proposition" ,"
 It is the plan, according to MT. Bloom, to pave Fifth avenue from State street to Wisconsin street The latter street is at the end of the city limits, and should the meeting term mate successfully, it would mean an other paved street for Pine Bluff over a mile in length It would not only be an addition to the good looks of the city, but would relieve much of the traffic which now goes over Sixth avenue.
 Among the large property owners on Fifth avenue who have signified their willingness to form the district are, The Standard Lumber company, The Planters Oil Mill, Creed Caldwell, and many other industrial plants as well as individuals.

he was decent about it. He con-
verted most Of his "grasping"
acquisitions into ordinary leases
and paid folks who owned property
taken for his needs real rent in
actual cash. In that way, as soon
as possible after a building was
taken, the American army was pay
