Becky enjoyed a good laugh, loved to line dance, and she loved to watch scary movies. She liked going to the lake and putting her toes in the sand. She also loved to go hiking, fishing, and doing anything that involved her kids or family. Her favorite pastime was watching her boys –Chuck and Hunter –play football at her alma mater, Des Arc High School; and watching Audrey marching in the band at halftime. She was SO proud to be their Mom. Becky also loved riding back roads with her husband Gary until the sun went down.

Larry was a retired farmer who enjoyed nothing more than to ride the farm roads watching his son farm while his heavily creamed coffee sloshed all over the dash and down the windshield. He spent his days contemplating how to better the farm and spent his afternoons enjoying the company of his dog, Bella, who is his dear companion. Larry always had sound fatherly advice and was a great friend to have. Larry enjoyed the change of season on the farm. He couldn’t wait until Winter to discuss next year’s plans for improvement. Larry’s last year has been filled with laughter, entertainment and keeping his family and caregivers on their toes. He will be dearly missed by all.

The Des Arc Eagles and the Bald Knob Bulldogs did not even get to start their game Friday night in Des Arc. The game was called because of lighting at around 8:30 p.m.
Shock said it was disappointing for both teams not getting to finish the game.“Maybe more so for us than Cross County,” he said. “They are a good football team. They were the most athletic team we would have seen so far this year. I felt like we needed to play a fourquarter game against those guys to really get something out of it for the next couple of weeks.” The Bison travel to Des Arc to play the Eagles this Friday. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
“I think if we had hung around, the earliest we could have played would have been 9:15 or 9:30. It was still raining at 10 o’clock.”Besancon said his players were disappointed to not get to play Clarendon.“Theyunderstood the situation too,” he said.

He coached against Carlisle when he was head coach at England. He was also an assistant to Scott Waymire during the 2012 season.
The Hazen Hornets had run through the tunnel and the coin flip had happened when lighting stopped their game before it started against the Clarendon Lions on Friday night at Hornet Field.“Someone said there was a lightning strike within nine miles,” said Hazen coach Joe Besancon, who talked to the Hazen police chief and found out the lighting was within eight miles of the stadium.“Once it gets within eight miles, you can’t do anything,” Besancon said. “All we did was the

Meat Inspection Program. Without a state meat inspection program, it was prohibitively expensive for food banks to receive and distribute meat. This act will make it easier and less costly for Arkansas food banks to provide senior citizens with meals containing high amounts of protein and other important nutrients.Arkansas has six Feeding America food banks. These food banks are at the heart of the Hunger Relief Alliance network of hunger relief organizations. The food banks serve as giant distribution sites for millions of pounds of food and other relief items that go out into the regions they serve.

JONESBORO, Ark. — Arkansas farmland values and cash rents are following commodity prices and inflation higher.The National Agricultural Statistics Service’s “2022 Land Values Summary,” showed the average United States farm real estate value at $3,800 an acre, up more than 12 percent from the previous year.

inflation. With mortgage rates increasing, that too may have accelerated some real estate buying,” Stiles said, adding that a downturn in the equity markets this year could also be viewed as supportive to farmland values, as investors shifted money to non-Wall Street assets.
Students who are homeless, or who have suffered abuse, often need an alternative learning environment.Anothercategory of state funding to local schools is to provide classes for English language learners (ELL).

Last school year 39,000 students, about eight percent of the total of 450,000 students in Arkansas, were in the ELL category because English was not their native language.
The predicted inflation rate that year, after averaging the projections of the two economic firms, is an estimated 1.84 percent. The following school year, 20242025, the projected inflation rate is 2.16
tion.“Sometimes you see competitive bidding for quality farms push cash rents up to $200 per acre or more,” Stiles said.Outlook for farmland valuesStiles said that current commodity prices would normally ensure a profit for farmers, but it remains to be seen what impact this summer’s weather had on yields. “From the start, we knew this year would be one of the most, if not the most, expensive. The added irrigation costs this year compounded the situation,” he“Evensaid. with favorable commodity prices, the cost environment we’re faced with could weaken farm balance sheets after this crop year. If that turns out to be true, we could see the value of farmland stabilize,” Stiles said. “As inflation abates and mortgage rates rise, investor interest in farmland may cool somewhat.”Tolearnabout extension programs in Arkansas, contact your local Cooperative Extension Service agent or @AgInArk.FollowvisitDivisionlearn@ArkAgResearch.Followhttps://aaes.uada.edu.website:ExperimentArkansasresearch,Divisionlearn@AR_Extension.andFollowwww.uaex.uada.edu.visitusonTwitterInstagramatTomoreaboutofAgriculturevisittheAgriculturalStationonTwitteratTomoreabouttheofAgriculture,https://uada.edu/.usonTwitterat

The spending levels in the adequacy report must take into account inflation, so the legislature subscribes to two economic data providers. They are HIS Markit and Moody’s Analytics. Both firms predict that the rate of inflation will slow down over the next fiveDuringyears.the 2023 regular session the legislature will approve public education funding for school years 2023-2024.

Cash rents rising "Like land values, cash rents in Arkansas have been trending higher, increasing 4.3 percent over the past year and nearly 11 percent since 2019," he said. In a cash-rent scenario, a farmer would lease land to produce a crop and pay a fixed cash rent per acre to the landowner.The 2022 state average cash rent for irrigated farms is $145 per acre. “North of I-40, it is not uncommon to see cash rents of $180 per acre,” Stiles said. “Looking at specific counties within NASS' “Cash Rents” survey, Clay and Craighead counties were at the upper end of cash rents in the state with an average of $175 and $172 per acre respectively,” he said. “Mississippi and Poinsett counties also had higher cash rents than the state average.”South of I-40, the above-average cash rents “tend to be in the southeast corner of the state, with Ashley, Chicot, Desha and Jefferson averaging close to $152 per acre this year,” Stiles said. Cash rents can be pushed higher on land that is irrigated, precision leveled, and has the ability to grow a diverse mix of crops. Other factors might include loca-

More than 66,000 Arkansas students last year received special education because they had learning disabilities, health impairments or a combination of emotional and intellectual disabilities. More than 5,700 were on the autism spectrum.
LITTLE ROCK – The Senate and House Committees on Education are scheduled to vote on next year’s adequacy report at their meeting in early October.Thecommittees went over a draft of the adequacy report at their September meeting. The legislature has been conducting adequacy reviews since 2003, to ensure that state funding of public schools is constitutionally adequate and equitable.
Almost 17,000 children had speech impairments.Arkansas schools recognize 12 categories of disability to determine whether a student qualifies for special education, and whether the school should receive bonus funding.
