"The best holiday trade we have ever
enjoyed" is the unanimous verdict of
Yakima's merchants. No better indi-
cation of the general prosperity of the
people could be given. When money is
easy everybody is inclined to be liberal
at the gift-giving season. In Yakima
every man woman and child seemed to
have laid away something for Christmas
and the character of the purchases gen.
orally would seem to indicate that mon
ey was plenty and that the best was
none too good with which to remember
friends.

The farmers institute which meets
here on the 18th, 14th and 18th of jan
uary is attracting the attention of the
ranchers throughout the county. Many
eminent speakers will be present to adj
dress the convention on the various
agricultural, horticultural and irriga-
ton topics, and there will be many
other interesting features to make out
fine program. The last evening of the
institute will be spent in banquet style,
at which musical program by local
talent will be rendered. The meetings
will be held in the hall over the post
office.

MARRIAGES..
Sickler-Conrad.

At the home of J. II. Conrad, in the
artesian district of the Mckee valley,
on Christmas day at high noon occurred
the marriage of Miss Mae Conrad and
Mr.. J. R. Seeker, by Rev. Arthur Vail of
the Christian church. Quite number of
friends of the contracting parties were
present at the ceremony after which an
elegant Christmas and wedding dinner
combined was served. The young peo-
pie have the congratulations and best
wishes of the valley.

Sixteen business blocks, 160 resi-
dences, one school house, one church,
one planning mill, one saw mill, box,
door and sash factory, and two ware
houses is North Yakima's building re-
cord for 1902 at an expenditure of $780,
001. This includes only the city proper.
The suburban surroundings have kept
pace with the growth of the city, and
many new farm residences, barns, hop
houses and other structures are in evil
dence. The past year has been a ban
ner season for building improvements,
but which in all probability will be sur
passed by 1903. The future for Yakima
looks very bright.

THE HERALD's suggestion that f. p.

better exponent OF the town of Kenne-
wick if the sheet were headed Kenne-
wick instead of Columbia, and invites
THE HERALD to attend to its own bust

same. That's all right. but what's the
matter with the Leader granting Mr..

not cost anything, either.

favorable for such an undertaking.

the prices running from 65 to S5c
pound, while Others asked for the best
fully as high as the American Tobacco
Co. There is no reason why lower rates
should be given this year. But from the
supply to be had, which is evidently in
adequate to the wants of the trade, we
feel justified in predicting high prices to
prevail for the new crop.
Our correspondents write as follows;
Whately: "The work of preparing the
seed beds seems now to be generally at
tended to. A few have sown the seed,
but more will do it this week. There are
but few crops left for sale Quite num-
Der have their crops assorted and force
sweated. About the usual amount will
be grown, or so it looks now." Amherst:
"The crop is nearly all sold. A few have
assorted, and are having their goods as
sorted and force sweated at Hatfield.
About the usual acreage will be planted
this season" Somers, Ct.: 1.-The bulk of
our 1901 crop is in the packers hands.
A few lots remain unsold which the
growers refuse to sell at the low prices
that have been offered About the aver
age acreage will be set the coming sea-
son." Enfield, CT: "The season for
making seed beds has arrived, and the
past week many have sowed the tiny
seeds. The fire here a week ago at
Warehouse Point destroyed many thous-
and dollars worth of cigar leaf. Fully
the usual quantity of tobacco will be set

MIAM1sBURG, O., April 3, 1902.

Deliveries of new thinner and seedleaf
were quite frequent and heavy during
the past week. The choice crops re-
naming in farmers hands are now very
scarce, and the majority of them are
held at prices ranging from 10 to 121ac
for thinner and from 7 to Sc for seed
leaf. 1t is reported that several pack
ing concerns have lately repudiated a
portion of their contracts, and that q.
couple of other packers are re-buying
the crops from farmers. The weather
this week has been blustery and dis
agreeable for buyers to ride, which fact
in connection with the scarcity of desir-
able crops, is perhaps responsible for the
small number of Sales reported Farm
ers are beginning to prepare the soil for
seedbeds, but few are likely to SOW the
seeds to this years crop until the ground
becomes warmer. News,

climbing up the scale and beef is out of
sight; the eggs he gathers every day
from his Poland chicken coop are almost
worth their weight in gold, and we are

rakes in a bag of cash for half load of
hay. The farmers in the saddle and

up at rapid rate. A few packers are
still holding back, but most of them have

A cigar leaf tobacco grower, who re-
ported that he proposed to manufacture
cigars from tobacco which he raised
himself, and who inquired whether he
would be required to qualify as manu-
facturer and pay tax on the cigars, was
advised that every person who makes
cigars for himself, or employs others to
make or manufacture cigars is regarded
as manufactures of cigars within the
meaning of the law, and is required to
make return on form Ii and pay special
tax; and in addition to this requirement
must file statement on form 361s and
give a bond, form 100, in the penal sum
required by the collector of Internal
Revenue for his district, and that the
fact that he raised his tobacco material
did not change the status of the case.

NEW YORK, Aprll ., l5UA.
This was one of the most dismal weeks
of the current year in the market. Trad
ing was confined mostly to retailing,
hardly any transactions of any note TAX
ing place. The only heavy inquiry was
for force e-sweated Connecticut, but for
one reason or another it cannot be had
in sufficient quantities to supply the de-
mand. Neither did the Sumatra market
show any remarkable improvement, al
though the old stock ought to have the
call now. Prospective buyers, however,
seem to prefer to wait for the arrival of
the types bought at the first inspection.
This is always an off season for Sumatra
till buyers make up their minds which
of the crops, whether the new or the old,
will best suit their purpose. But the
Sumatra trade is bound to become brisk
after a while. The Havana trade has
livened up somewhat. The new Rene
dios are taking we'll, though the old
stock is not neglected by any means

New YORK, April 2, 1902.

There is nothing particularly encour-
aging to report this week. AS one dealer
expressed it, "There is a good deal of
nibbling going on, but nothing is being
landed" Information at hand show that
deals involving from 100 to TOO cases of
leaf are being negotiated, but so far this
week all but the smaller sales are hang
ing fire. Looking over back reports, it
is found that April as we'll as March of
last year were extremely dull months,
and business did not begin to pick up
until the latter part of May. Inquiry,
however, is stronger now than it was
year ago, and as stocks are somewhat
lower than they were in April, 1901, it is
reasonable to believe that the usual
spring resumption of activity will set in
before this month is over More force
sweating is being done this year than
last, and the influx of these early tobac-
cos will serve to stimulate business to
considerable extent. All things consid-
cred, the outcome is not at all discour-
aging despite the lassitude which now
prevails.-Leaf.
