Answer 2

The history of Wal-Mart can be traced back to the 1940s when Sam Walton began his career in retailing. After being interviewed by recruiters from both Sears Roebuck and JC Penney just before graduating from the University of Missouri in Columbia, Sam accepted a job offer from In September 1944, Walton acquired, from George Scharlott, the franchise and lease on a Ben Franklin in Newport, Arkansas. The variety store was part of a chain operated by the Butler Brothers, a regional retailer. After three years, Walton increased annual sales from $80,000 to $225,000 by 1948. However, the landlord, P.Karli Holmes, declined to renew the lease on favorable terms and Walton was forced to relocate before the end of 1950. Walton was prepared to purchase a five-and-dime from Jim Dodson in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, but the two were $7,000 apart on agreement on a purchase price. On May 9, 1950, Walton purchased a store from Luther E. Harrison in Bentonville, Arkansas, and opened Walton's 5 & 10. Thus, the Ozark Mountain town of 2,900 residents would become the headquarters for the world's largest retailer.

There is your answer... Wal-Mart is one of Arkansas' famous things.

Hope that answered your question.

(Actually been to the old Walton's 5 & 10, down on the square in Bentonville, AR. It's really neat, lots of old advertisements and product packaging, pretty interesting stuff)
