OCEAN BREEZES !:

Lying in the Mid Pacific, swept by
the trade winds which blow across
leagues of ocean and are absolutely
pure, with the mountains from whose
higher attitudes cool breezes descend
upon by the city, with its delightful
climate all the year around, is one of
the many reasons why Honolulu is be-
ing recognized as one of the worlds
most healthful places in WHICH to live
There are no biting, cold winds, but,
instead, refreshing health giving trade
breezes that make every person want
to return--especially if he has been
at that elevation where he can get a
glimpse of Diamond Head in its ma
jesty on the left, the panoramic view
of the city on the right, the beautiful
ocean view and it's exhilarating breez-
es on the south ana the mountains
with their picturesque scenery on the
north; all of which can be obtained
from any point on Kaimuki where
choice, residential property is being
sold by the Real Estate Exchange.

today, there being large receipts Al that

result the market at this point was Eener-

CATTLE-Receipts Of cattle this morning
were very large, PSI cars being reported In:
This is the heaviest run for a Monday Of
any day since January IL, when 290 cars
were reported in. With that exception, IL
Is the heaviest since the close OF the range
season of last year. AS may be surmised
from this, a very large proportion OF the
receipts consisted of range steers. With
such sudden influx of cattle and with
prices high at the close Of the week, 1t
will be readily understood how the gen.
eral market today was slow and late in
opening.
Feeder buyers we're the first to begin
for desirable grades of feeding cattle, while
the offerings of such were by no means
burdensome. The result was that cattle
and they generally commanded prices not
materially different. from those prevailing
at the close Of last week. Inferior kinds
and trashy light cattle we're naturally
slow sellers, but as a matter OF fact that
is the case during the greater part of the
time.
The first beef steers to sell we're the
cornfeds, which being in very light supply
generally commanded fully steady prices,
Strictly well finished beeves sold up 10 Sis,
as high as has been paid any day this sea
son. On the other hand the great surplus
OF grass steers created some weakness and
buyers started out bidding 10c TO 16c lower,
and they succeeded in buying the most OF
the cattle as much as lOc lower.
Cows and heifers came i'm for more OF
less weakness, being slow and around lOC
lower IMAM ldSl week.
After the more urgent orders were filled
and buyers learned that there was really
quite a large supply of feeders on sale the
market on hat kind of cattle also showed
weakness, sales In some cases looking as
much as 10c lower.
