Why it pays to Trade

There never was and probably never wtll be a cash store that did not sslr goods at an average percentage lssa sssan credit stores in the same cena1uuulty.
 TAegs are. of course, some things sold at about the same prices, but in RtecA instances it is an article sold by at 1he credit stores as well as the cash stores at a bargain that admits Op no gcduction. For instance, If s@me sSaple article cost 19 cents and the established price of all mer- chamgs on it is 9 cents, it could not gssR be aold at less than that price. Bu9 OF the other hand Shere are many aFgieIes costing from r to 20 cents sold Sp the cash stores for 25 cents Rhse are sold by the credit stores at fFu@a so cents to 40 cents and that is where the cash stores save you money aud af you were to take a pencil and figure tAe per centage you would find the saving of a big interest on your imGRsY over buying at a credit store Bma paying on the first of the follow iNg month

The $4,000 tons of freight carried
last year by the road consisted mainly
of sugar and fertilizers for the big plan
tations which have been established along
its route. While the insistent growth of
traffic is due to this ever extending in
dustry, their existence must be credited
to the foresighted starting of the rail-
road and its perpetual enterprise. The
road is in the main responsible for the
enlarged sugar production of Oahu,
which, one-seventh the size of the big
island of Hawaii. today boasts a yearly
output of considerably over 100000 tons,
the practical equivalent of Hawaii 5 prod

Oahu three years ago.

industry, sends along the rails much of

of the Oahu Railway and Land Com
pany were opened for the accommoda-
ton of the public as far as they then
extended, TO Halawa, distance of eight
miles. Today, after an almost pheno-
menal growth foreseen indeed by the
original promoter of the road, Mr.. B. F.
Dillingham;, the railroad carries annual
ly half a million of passengers and hauls

sisting OF plantation products and sup
plies, over 81 miles of solidly construct

the big sugar mills along its route, own

The equipment of the road has grown
from its inception to a perfectly equip

with round houses, machine shops and
eight well planned stations, besides the
up-to-date depot at the Honolulu term
inal, with its rooted over sheds, cement
ed platforms and modern gate system.
There are also eight minor way stations
