its limitations and defects, has been
uninterrupted by disturbance from

by Asiatic ideals and conventions; but
the foreign ideals and manners which

Japan differs radically from the
other countries of the East In its pos
session OF a sensitive national con.
seriousness and of a thorough and min

In this respect 1t stands IN striking
contrast to other oriental countries.

Short Lived Republic.

1t may NOT be generally known that
republic composed Of the states OF
Nicaragua, Salvador and Honduras
and known as the United States of
Central America was established in
1898 by Il party of enterprising indi-
yiduals. On Nov. of that year depu-
tations of the three mentioned states
met at Nicaragua, which had been de-
cided on as the new capital, and con-
stituted the United States of Central
America, taking the oath to support
the new republic and making laws to
be observed by all the people of the
states concerned. The new constitu-
tion was modelled on the lines Of the
United States of America, but it did
not live to take place in the govern
ment of the western hemisphere. Less
than a month after 1t had been estab-
lished the republic mysteriously COL

Lieoriee as II Grows.

The licOrice shrub is like the hazel,
growing to the height Of four or five
feet. and the root is the only part that
has value. 1t is found in damp, sandy
places, chiefly along the banks of riv-
ers around the Caspian sea, and is dug
by peasant women, who earn from 10
to 10 cents day working for the lic0-
rice collectors. TIE root sells for a
few cents pound in the raw state.
The larger part is shipped in that con-
dition, but about 20 per cent of the
product is boiled and crushed, and the
juice is made into the hard black paste
such as can be bought in the drug
stores. In 1S4S an Italian began to
cultivate licorice, and since that time
many people have adopted the indus
try. because the cultivated root con-
tains much more sap than that Of the
wild plant and costs very little more
The Only attention necessary is to keep
the soil loosened and well watered.
The cultivated licorice brings much
higher prices in the market and pro-
duces much greater quantity Of paste
in proportion.

SCHOOL
For Farmers To Be Held At
Howard

A school of farmers and home max
ers will be held at Howard during the
week of Nov. 1920. This school is the
result of community work and reflects
credit to the progressive spirit of the
people in and around Howard. They
have secured specialists from the Col
lege of Agriculture to give instruction
and demonstrations in the subjects of
Soil Fertility, Farm Crops, Poultry
Raising, Animal Husbandry and Home
Economics. If the farmers of any COM
munity are able to maintain the fertili-
ty of the soil and, at the same time
produce large crops, they may well be
proud of their work. There are few
farms for sale in such a neighborhoOd;
those few are readily sold at good
price and the newcomer usually con-
siders himself lucky at finding such a
| favorable location. The study and dis
| cussion of these subjects as will un-
doubtedly take place at this school can
not result otherwise than good for the
community. Such a.school is certain
ly boost to the community, an oppor-
tunity for the farmers to secure first
hand and high-grade instruction in var
ious lines, and undoubtedly will result
in better future for the community.
Make note of the date, talk the
school over with your neighbor, hunt
up member of the Membership Com
mittee of the School, and purchase a
| full.week ticket.
