Sahara Not a Desert.

1t is the general opinion that
the Sahara is a barren, uninhab-
tied and uninhabitable sandy de-
sert, sometimes traversed by cara
vans which are threatened with
the awful and deadly simoons.
This is very erroneous idea. A
French botanist, who has Just re-
turned from an extensive exploring
trip through the entire territory of
the French or Algerian Sahara,
states that the whole stretch with
very few exceptions) is solid and
fertile soil, and is inhabited by
great many people and animals.
In 1894 the official records show
that 100000 sheep, which pay
over 100000 revenue to the gov
eminent, were living in the Sahara
proper. Taking the value of these
sheep at 81 a piece, this represents
a property of $26, 100000. Besides,
there are 100000 goats and 1OO,-
900 camels. There are a number
of GASES where fruit, pepper, onions
and many other vegetables are
grown. Many natives who still
cling to nomadic life, prefer to
spend the winter in the Sahara to
remaining near the shores of the
Mediterranean in the rainy, win
ter season.

A Model Plant is not complete without
Electric Power, thus dispensing with
small Engines.
Why not generate your power from
one CENTRAL Station One generator
can furnish power to your Pumps, Centri-
fugals, Elevators, Flows, Railways and
Hosts also furnish light and power for
a radius of from Is to 20 miles.
Electric Power being used caves the
labor of hauling coal in your field, also
water, and does away with hing priced
engineers, and only have one engine to
look after in your mill.
Where water power is available, il
costs nothing to generate Electric Power.
THE HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC COMPANY is
now ready to furnish Electric Plants
and Generators of all descriptions at
short notice, and also has on hand
large stock of Wire, Chandeliers, and all
Electrical Goods.
All orders will be given prompt atten-
ton, and estimates furnished for Light
