Snake prevention and control tips for Arkansas homes
In Arkansas roughly 2,500 snake species exist in the United States but only four are poisonous. County Extension Agent Calvin J. Caldwell urges property cleanups to deter snakes, noting direct sun harms them and advising under-house, barn spraying with approved termiticides like heptachlor and chlordane. He emphasizes following label directions, keeping children and pets away, and destroying snake dens to reduce infestations.

Moran urges utilities to work with environmentalists on energy research
Arkansas Public Service Commission chair Pat Moran told Edison Electric Institute in Austin that privately owned electric firms should collaborate with environmentalists on research into more efficient electricity generation. He supported a strengthened federal role but noted utilities prefer to manage research themselves. Some environmentalists fear a focus on patching existing tech rather than pursuing new options. A separate note from Washington reports a $224000 Headstart grant for Black River Development Corp in Pocahontas to train 260 preschoolers from low income families.
