THE WEEKLY SUI
NEW YORK.

Eighteen hundred and seventy-six is the
Centennial year. 1t is also the year in
which an Opposition House of Reprcsen'
t%atives, the first since the war, will be in
power at Washington ; and the year of the
twenty-third election of a President Of ihe
United States. All of these events are
sure to be of great interest'and Importance,
especially the two latter and all of them
and everything connected with them will
be fully and freshly reported and expound-
ed in THEl SuS.
The Opposition House of Representa-
tives, taking up the line of inquiry opened
years ago by The SrN, will sternly and
diligently Investigate the %corruptions and
misdeeds of GRANTS administration and
will, it is to be hoped, lay the foundation
for a new and better periodi in our national
history. OF all this The Sun will con-
tain complete and accurate accounts, fur
nishing its readers with early and trust
worthy information upon these absorbing
topics.
The tw~enty-third Presidential election,
with the preparations for il, will be mem
orabie as deciding upon GRANTS aspirations
for third term, of power and plumber, and
still more as deciding who shall be the
candidate Of he party Of Reform, and as
electing that candidate. Concerning ali
these subjects, those who read The Sun
will have the constant means OF being
thoroughly well informed. frH
The WEEKLx SuS, which has attained a
circulation of over eighty thousand copies,
already has its readers in every State and
Territory, and We trust that the year
1876 will see their numbers doubled. 1t
will continue to be a thorough ne newspaper.
All the general news of the day will be
fornd in it, condensed when %unimpprtant.
at full length when of moment, and al
ways, we trust, treated in a clear, inter.
esting and instructive manner,
1t is our aim to make the WEEKLY SIN
the best family Newspaper in the world,
and we. shall continue to give in its col
umns a large amount of miscellaneous read
ing, such as stories, tales, poems scientific
Intelligence aud agricultural information,
for which we are not able to make rom
in our daily edition, The agricclturatde-
partment especially is one OF lts prominent
features. The fashions are also regularly

him concerning the home manu-
facture of tobacco. AS it so near

State, 1--WE SNp from the Gazette and

OFFICE OF INTERNAL REVENUE, }
WAsHINGToN, D. c., December :

SIRt In gour letter Of the 14th
.inst.s you statetliat maRy3inquIrles
are made of YOU by y'r constltu-
%ents-small farmers in the interior
of your state-as to whether they
are allowed under the internal
revenue laws to manufacture to-
bacco of their own production, SIN
any FORM for their own use ex-
elpswely, and you desire an an
swer to this question from this
Office.
In reply I have to inform you
that the law regards any and ev-
cry process in working and prepar-
ing raw or leaf tobacco for CON
sumption, other than the ordinary
mode Of drying and curing for
general sale, manufacturing"
But the several liabilities imposed
upon manufacturers o! tobacco are
coupled with the condition that
the person thus employed shall be
employed TO such an extent, or in
such aimanner,@ as to constitute a
business"
The specific tax of twenty-four
cents a pound imposed by law on
all manufactured tobacco, is also
coupled with a condition, viz. /. that
the tobacco shah be manufactured
and sold or removed for cosump.
ton or USE, Il am therefore of
opmionthat whcrethe manufacture
ing of tobacco Is not made q bus
mess, and where no sale or con
sumption, as for instance when a
farmer upon his own premises
twists or otherwise manufactures
tobacco of his own growing, and
for his own use exclusively, and
whoA neither sells nor offers for
.sale,y nor removes from his own
premises, either for salel or con-
sumption, tobacco so grown and
manufactured by him, such farmer
is not liable under the United
states internal irevenue law for Il
special tax as q manufacturer, nor
the tax of twenty-four cents a
pound on such tobacco.

A WONDERFUL WHEAT cOUN-
TRY.

We have been-in the habit OF
supposlng that the Wallamet valley
was the greatest wheat growing
country on the habitable globe, and
have feiv like indalging in an in
definite amount of vainglorious
boastlng over the record Of fields
producing so bushels or more TO
the acre, and whole farms averag-
ing 50 or 40 bushels, But our
Beautiful valley and our farmers
mist Look to their laurels hence
forth. From a gentleman of un-
doubted veracity, ca%refulness and
accuracy, we receive some informa-
tion concerning wheat raising in
Eastern Washington Territory
which SURPRISES the best showing
we remember to have seen in this
part of the country. s..1r4
C. Maier, living near the base of
the Mountains, in Walla Walla
Valley, in 1873 raised on a 60 acre
field 1920 bushels of wheat, an
average of 67 bushels to the acre;
and in 1875, from a 60 acre tract,
1920 bushels, or 81 bushels TO the
acre.
Mr.. Masterton, residing A miles
south of Walla Walla, raised onl1O
acres $50 bushels, OF, So bushelsito
the acre.
W Mr.. Kennedy, whose farm is on
Dry Creek, 6 miles from Walla
Walla, harvested 5,252 bushels
from $50 acres-35 bushels aver
age; and this was a volunteer crop
that is, the second crop from one
sowing.
These crops, says our Informant,
were produced on ordinary wheat
land; land that Is considered good,
but no. better than hundreds of
thousands of acses now lying va
cantln Walla Walla and Whiteman
counties; especially north Of Shake
River, where there is a country
vast enough to produce more than
25,000,000 bushels per annum, and
where a failure of crops has never
been known.--PortLand Oregonidn.

BIG FARMS AND BOOKLESS
A H. FARM HOUSES.

What is the use of big farms
and bookless houses, of great es-
Ntates and blighted children? Shame
on a man who can buy more land,
hut who starves the minds Of his
children. The truth IS that the
obligation to provide for the in

as manifest and binding as the OBJ
legation to feed, clothe and shelter
them and it is enforced by higher
motives. Some day this will be

can but will not educate his
children will feel himself dis

how unjust, how cruel such a
father! He. refuses his children.

land can atone for such a wrong.
1t is a personal injury inflicted up
on the helpless, and by the hand
that of all others owed blessing
