Where the Plant Grows and How II l.
Prepared For Consumption.
Black licorice Is made from the Juice
of the licoricc plant, mixed with starch
to prevent 1t from melting in hot wealth
er. The licurice plant grows for the
most part ON the banks of the Tigris
and Euphrates rivers, which flow
through immense treeless prairies of un-
cultivated land. The climate of thcsc
great plains is variable. Half the y,ar
1t is mild and pleasant, but for three
months it is very cold. and for three
months i'll summer hot winds sw,'p
across the country, raising the tempera-
ture to lO4 degrees for weeks at time.
The licorice plant is shrub three
feet high and grows without cultIva-
tion in situations where its roots can
reach the water. The usual time of col
lecting is the winter, but roots are dug
all the year round At first the root is
full of water and must be allowed to
dry, process which takes nearly a
year. 1t is then cut into small pieces,
from six inches to a foot long. The good
and sound pieces are kept, and the rot
ten ones are used for firewood. The lie
orice Is then taken in native river boats
of Bassora, whence it is shipped in
pressed bales to London.
As the valley of the Euphrates con-
tanned one of the earliest civilizations
in the world, it is probable that licorice
is about the oldest confectiou extant,
and that the taste, which pleases nearly
all children today, was familiar to the
little brown boys and girls of Babylon
and Nineveh 5000 years ago Pitts

paper is taken care of, why not sub

MIDDLETON MELANGE.

Our boys played the two mines of
| Middleton Senior and Junior Sunday
| morning. Game rather tame. In the
afternoon the Marble Front boys failed
| to put in an appearance which was a
| disappointment to our boys but the
| Marble Frontiers will not have another
! chance to fool the boys, they will have
to send more than their word that they
will come. Several of the Caldwell
boys came up (WOodie Maxey, James
Boone, Tom Paynter, Ralph Sebree
and Willie kelleher) to see the game
and report. Boys we are not ready
for you yet, will let you know when we
are.
The children of the Middleton sun
day School observed Children's Dayton
Sunday evening in very pleasing man
ner which reflects great credit OF those
who have had the training of the little
folks. The program was well selected,
and as there was no pastor to preside,
Mrs ). 5. Foote filled the position with
credit to herself and all concerned
There was a very good attendance and
perfect order maintained.
We were not troubled with tramps
all this spring until the L. S. Marshals
interfered with the CoXeyites. Now
we have four or five every day. Wish
they had left them alone or let them go
east. We want men to work but this
kind are not looking for work. Some
thing to eat and place to sleep is all
they want.
The Colman family who have BEEN
visiting their relatives, Seth Bixby aud
family, will return to Nebraska, their
former home. They could not find
anything to suit them in this part of
the world They might dwell in this
state ten thousand years and not meet
another such season.
M. b. Gwinn was up to the future
County Seat, the Sth, inst, and was the
first one to cross the slough bridge
since the high water. The slough has
fallen 3 feet in three days. 1t is nearly
all within its banks and will be by
morning if it keeps cool.
You Caldwell boys come back next.
Sunday, you will not be disappointed
for the Star boys will be here and no
failure. They play for a ball, bat and
dinner for the crowd Come up and
bring your friends with you.
We have Senior ball club now. The
younger boys have organized Junior
club and are ambitions 20 play the Sen
iors and beat them, then wipe out the
whole state. Hope their pride may
never get a fall.
The last shot. of the season on the
water question Il hope:) The Middleton
slough has fallen five feet by actual
measurement and reveals to the eye
the sad havoc it has played with our
roads.
