THE LICORICE PLANT.
Where 1t Grows and How Its Black
Juice Is Treated.

Where 1t Grows and How Its Black
Juice Is Treated.
Black licorice is made from the juice
of the Icorice plant. mixed with starch
to prevent it from melting in hot
weather. The licorice plant grows for
the most part on the banks of the
Tgris and Euphrates rivers, which
flow through immense treeless prairies
of uncultivated land. The climate OF
these great plains is variable. Half the
year it is mild and pleasant but for
three months ii is very cold, and for
three months in summer hot winds
sweep across the country, raising the
temperature to 104 degrees for weeks
at a time.
The licorice plant is a shrub three
feet high and grows without cultiva-
ton in situations where its roots can
reach the water. The usual time OF
collecting Is the winter. but roots are
dug all the year around. 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 rotten ones are used for
firewood.
AS the valley Of the Euphrates con-
tanned one OF the earliest civilizations
in the world, 1t is probable that licorice
is about the oldest confection extant
and that the taste. which pleases near
~ all children today, was familiar to
the little brown boys and girls OF
Babylon and Nineyeh 1900 years ago.

LOCAL FIRM WILL
AID Commission
IN FREIGHT CASE
ShiveIey and ShiveIey Have
Been Chosen to Appear for
The Indiana Railroad Body
in Suit of Pennsylvania.
ACTION is TO PREVENT
FREIGHT INTERCHANGE.
Suit by the Pennsylvania Has
Been Filed in the Superior
Court-Some of the Ale ,e-
ments in Complaint.

Attorneys Charles +. Shiveley and
Ray X. Shiveley have been notified
that the Railroad Commission of In
diana has retained their services in
the case of the Pittsburg, Cincinnati
Chicago C st. Louis Railroad company
against Union B. Hunt, William J.
Wood and Charles V. McAdams as
the Railroad Commission of Indiana
This suit has been filed in the Marion
county superior court. The railroad
company has filed this suit to render
void the re cent order of the Railroad
Commission for the construction Of
an interchange track between the P,
c., G. & st. l.. railroad and the c., G..
& l.. railroad at Richmond. In this
suit the plaintiff also asks that the
Railroad Commission be perpetually
enjoined from enforcing or attempting
to enforce the order for the cOnstruc-
ton Of this exchange track. The
complaint was filed by the p, c., c. &
ST. l.. in the Marion county superior
court 1t maintains that all of the
tract of land affected is necessary to
the plaintiff to handle its traffic and
discharge it's duties as a common car
rier 1t is also averred that the plain
tiff has the majority per cent Of the
carload business in and out of Rich
mOnd.
Affects Train Movement.
In the complaint it is further stat
ed by the construction and operation
of an Interchange track will, by rea-
son of the location of the p, c., G. &
St. l.. main tracks, sidings and switch
es of the terminal yards and the con-
gested condition of the traffic upon
said tracks and in said yards, great
movements of passenger and freight
trains on the main tracks.
In the complaint the deep river
gorge over which the main tracks of
the P, c., c. & st. l.. cross and the
narrow strip of land on which the
tracks of c., c. & L. run along under
the P, c., G.. & St. l.. is described. IT
tract of land referred to in the com
plant, it would be impossible to Sc
cure additional land at the junction
of the two roads upon which to con-
struct an interchange track.
In conclusion the complaint AYERS
that the enforcement of the order of
the Commission is void because if en-
forced the plaintiff would be deprived
of its property without due process of
law and would be denied equal protec-
ton of the laws. The plaintiff also
AYERS that the enforcement of the ord
er would take the plaintiffs property
which is already devoted to a public
use and appropriate it to another and
different public use.
