STATE CAPITOL NEWS

the recent Legislature, in the ln- terest of the farmer, is the crea- tion of the Bureau of Crop Es- inmates and Immigration, by the passage of the Vaughan bill. This is to be part of the De- partment of Agriculture, and is to be made a vital, effective phase of the work.
 The bureau will be conducted in cooperation with the Feder- Government. It will be in im- mediate charge of Chs. '-. Boa- ton, of Springdaie, who has been United States Crop Reporter for several years. His services and that of a stenographer, also franking privileges, will be fur nished by the Government, and the reports will be printed by the Government, so that the cost to the state will be reduced to a minimum.
 James E. Stevenson, of Dar- danelle, who is highly recom- mended for his work in the Col lege of Agriculture and in the Magnolia Agricultural College, has been selected by Commis- sioner Ferguson as Assistant Crop Reporter, and c. E. Toole, formerly of the State Treasury, will be clerk in the office. John c. Small, who has been in the Department for the last two years, has been appointed Com missioner of Immigration. The 600 volunteers MT. Bouton has on his staff are to be increased to 2000, so that the entire state may be thoroughly covered. For the first time in the history of the state it will be possible to se- cure accurate and complete data of the products of the farm in Arkansas, by counties. The saving to the state by reason of Government assistance is about $5000 year for the reporter and stenographer, and at least $3,600 a year for postage and stationery.
 The purpose of the Bureau will be to display the resources of the state in such an attrac- tive light that the earnest home seekers and investors will know that it is to their interest to To- cate here. Arkansas must be developed, and it's ten million : acres of idle lands and three million acres of listed cut over lands must be settled if we are to maintain the progressive ten- dency which has been evident for the last few years.
 Arkansas has room for a million new settlers. Inquiries about our low priced lands are coming from every section of the Union. Since the close of the world war, the soldiers and the civilian alike are wanting to re-eStablish, and there is no state that presents a greater ap- peal to the home-hunter than Arkansas.
 The establishment. of the new bureau, with expert, trained, progressive men like MT. Bou- ton, MT. Small, and MT. Steven son at it's head, will make pos sible a comprehensive presenta- tion of the resources of the state in .tL.e form of a periodical hand book showing the facts pertain ing to industrial activities, eli matic conditions, soil advan- tages, various growing crops, live stock, minerals, timber re sources, manufacturing and in- dustrial opportunities, and a brief description of each county with approximate maps illustra- tions and statistical matter.
 This bureau is an addition of incalcuable value to a depart { fnent that is rapidly growing ill

OPTIMISM

Look up not down
 Be true; Just smile, don't froWn
 Can't you? Just laugh to scorn All thoughts forlorll The roses not the thorn $ for me. The rain may fall,
 It will; The cold wind call
 So shrill; Don't lose your hoia' Just fact it bold, Nor mind it's coiu
 So chill. Life's task l know
 Is hard, The days bring slow
 Reward. But don't despair The skies are far That lead you there
 To God.

The so saloons in Norwich whose li- cense fees annually turn in over $50,- coo through the county commissioners closed their doors at Il o'clock Mon day night with considerable doubt as to what the future holds for them. They will remain closed today Clues day) and for the future until they have further authorita tive advice as to the exact application of the national prohibition law that goes into effect on, July l.
 At a meeting held Monday after noon in Foresters hall by the Norwich Liquor Dealers association it was de- cided to keep the saloons open today, but after the meeting had adjourned advice was received from the secre- tary- of the state association that they hadhad better keep closed. This word was passed around as far as possible and is given further circulation by an advertisement which appears in The Bulletin this morning.
 In the evening hours of Monday the saloons did a rush business up to closing time. Bars were lined with customers taking what they feared might be their final nightcaps over the mahogany counter and many carried packages with them when they went out so as to be fortified against the impending drought.
 In spite of the big business there was little overindulgence that resulted in arrests fer intoxication vixen the patrons appeared on the street and the night was much as any ordinary one as far as the police records show ed

In the Grin of liaht.

4 student of physical science snys that It is not because the moth Is light-hearte1, needless and utterly frivolous that it piunges hcadlong into the flames, but because of tho way that Its body Is constructed. There are two symmetrical points, exactly alike chemically. on tho moths body namely, Its eyes. If the fays of light modify the chemical condition of one side more than the other. then the moths power of movement is affected. There Is stronger muscular tension on one si.ie tian on the other. If. however. oue Of the eyes is removed the chemical symmetry Is destroyed. cnd instead of plungiug into the hane 1t moves about in the circle. There are other animals md insects besides the moth which are hopelessly in the grip of light.
