Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt) with shortening and dust with flour.

Sift 3 ½ cups flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.

Beat sugar and butter together in a bowl with a spoon until creamy. Mix in eggs.

Combine orange juice and milk in a separate bowl; add to sugar mixture. Stir in flour mixture, anise extract, and lemon extract until well combined. Fold in dates and walnuts; pour into the prepared pan.

Bake in the preheated oven until top of cake springs back when touched and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 45 to 60 minutes. Cool in the pan for 20 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling, 15 to 25 minutes more.
