LlQuorice Culture.

Among themany industries recently
introduced into California the cultiva-
tion of liouorice promises to be one of
considerable importance. Some
thirty years ago the cultivation of
Iiouorlce was attempted on Long
Island. but the climate was too cold
and the roots we're soon destroyed by
freezing. The plant might be raised
in any Of cur Southern States. as well
rs in California but for some reason it
has been neglected, and. in consequence.
we import vast quantities. of the roots.
Tiouorice requires a very. deep and
rather moist soil because the roots
nenetrate to considerable depth and
i in all directions and the crop is not
gathered until the ground i, pretty
well filed with the long rope-like
roots. which usually take from three
to four years from the time Of planting
to mature. In -hefing the crop. the
entire soil to the depth to which the
roots penetrate las to be worked over
with forks and spades, or many pieces

Counting a billion.

"Johnnie," said father to his hand
some young son one evening as they
were sitting together, "can you count
billion?"
Certainly, papa; that's no great
feat" was thl reply.
"Do YOU know how many make

"Not exactly; but l will see what
Webster says in his dictionary. Here
it is-.A million OF millions; as many
millions as there are units in mil

"Now, my son, this is a very large
number, and do you think you can
count IT'D"
Certainly can"
"How long do you think it would
take you it you do nothing else but
count?"
"Perhaps all day, or easily in two
days" replied the son.
Take your slate and pencll ana leC

r tongue is very nimble, l will allow that

: "And how many in twenty-four
l hours?"
"Only two hundred and eighty thou

| "This tells you that two days are not
: enough, even if you count without
eating or sleeping, for it would only
give you six hundred and seventy-six

million, you see"
"Give me whole year and will
count it" said the son.
IF you do" said the good-natured
father, with Il twinkle in his eye, II
will give you hundred pounds, and
take you to France and Italy next
summer. Come, use your pencil again,
and see how far year will carry you
towards the billion. allowing that you
work three hundred and sixty-fve days,
and twenty-four hours each day Null
tiply two hundred and eighty-eight
thousand counted in day, by threo

will you have?"
"Why, papa, only one hundred and
five million, one hundred and twenty
thousand. give it up, for ] believe
l could not count it in my whole life
time"
This is very probable, my son; but
now you are at it keep up the calcula-
tion, aud find out how long it would
take to count billion. Be careful in
your multiplieations and additions, for
a small mistake where the figures are
so many will make a great difference
in the result. l will look over you.

A Plea for a Pension.
Minneapolis :


The Acknowledgment received queer letter
from an old soldier yesterday, which stated that
and person of good ''morral character But
in the army he had become demoralized He
says he lies, ''swares," and even steals and is a
victim of other bad ''habhits" He advances the
proposition, which seems reasonable enough,
that when the government hires a man to fight
for it, it is bound to return him to civil life in as
good "condision, morally and fzically," as it
took him. But as his character is utterly and
irretrievably ruined, he thinks it no more than
fair that the United States should give him a
pension If there is no law covering his case, he
suggests that the Adiutant-general use his in
fuence to have one passed, as he would "defe'
any man to associate with guardhouse bum
mers and mule drivers and return to his home

What the Zero Mark Means.
st. Louis Globe. Democrat.


Ninety-nine citizens out of one hundred had
something to say about zero yesterday per-
haps not one in hundred could have told, off
hand, why point, thirty two degrees below the
freezing point on Fahrenheit's Thermometer, is
called zero. For that matter, nobody knows
The Fahrenheit scale was introduced in 1920
Like other thermometric scales it has two fixed
points-the freezing point or rather the melting
point of ice, and the boiling point of water The
Centgrade and the Reamur call the freezing
point zero, and measure therefrom in both direc-
lions. This is very natural arrangement
Fahrenheit kept the principle on which he grad
uated his thermometers a secret, and no one has
ever discovered it. 1t is supposed, however, that
he considered his zero-thirty two degrees below
freezing-the point of absolute cold, or absence
of all heat, either because, being about the tenn
perature of melting salt and snow, it was the
greatest degree of cold he could produce artif-
ciay, or because it was the lowest natural tenn
perature of which he could find any record. The
grounds on which Fahrenheit put 1SG degrees
between the freezing points are likewise I'M
known,
