A.DIUTANT GENERAL

/ the enlisted personnel totals 100000
while the officers receive $52,GO00
,, an annual lump sum for officers and
men of almost two millions of dollars.
,, Money Spent Locally
1t has been estimated that a re.
markedly small proportion of this
money ever reaches the mainland.
Like the money spent by tourists, it
filters its way through the hotels,
curio shops, department stores. and
other avenues of trade into the vaults
of the local banks. There is an eli-
gram of the service to the effect that
an army man spends as much as he
makes and spends it literally wher-
ever he may be. stationed; and the
merchants of Honolulu have little
reason to doubt the truth OF. the
axiom. Department stores, in par
ticular, have found it to their interest
to foster army trade, with the result
that the army matron rarely If ever
delays making her purchases until a
prospective visit to the mainland.
Further estimates, calculated to
make the local contractor sit up and
dhc IIOtlCS. are luIHISH6u ny MdJOE
Cheatham relative to construction
work about to be undertaken by the
government. 1t is interesting to noie
that it costs 100000 to build set OF
barracks for the accommodation OF a
single regiment of infantry, while from
100000 to $4,000 is the amount re.
CURED for a set accommodating two
companies In addition to the three
quarters of a million already expended
upon the construction of buildings,
water supply, sewer and lighting sys-
tens. roads and walks, at the various
posts. Major Cheatham Contempfa;es
a further expenditure of more than
enc and three.quarters millions This
work is being done in large part by
local contractors and the materials
used are being purchased extensively
in the local market 49,. e.. .......
A second important item in the con
structiOn budget is the amount to Je
expended for coast and harbor de-
tense. According to Major w. P.
WOoten. corps of engineers. 100000
are required TO complete a mortar bat

In order that benefit from the sub.

local merchants the department has
been willing to cooperate in experi-
ments tending to prove that a greater
proportion of the army's food sup
plies can be cultivated on the island
Already the coffee growers have DEM
onstrated the superiority of their
product, and Major Cheatham has
agreed to purchase from them not
.oply the coffee consumed by the
troops on Oahu. but coffee for troops
serving in, the Philippines as we'll.
The government has been a consist
ent purchaser of algaroba feed and
experiments with other forage crops
are now being carried on. Further
experiments have established the fact
that onions grown ON the island are
second in quality Not even TO the
famous Bermuda product. And there
is little doubt but that, when local
producers awake to their opportunity,
rice, tobacco and the various legumin-
GUS products can be grown with little
or no difficulty. by diyersifying the
crops of the island and encouraging
the small farmer, in this manner, the
government hopes to stimulate the
local produce market in such way
as to benefit the entire community.
An item of direct interest to the re-
tail trade, in particular, is found in
the pay roll of officers and men
furnished by Captain r. B. Lister, OF
the quartermaster corps. Befire the
increase on January 18th, according
to Captain Lister, soldiers serving in
the ranks received $4,000 monthly;
the salaries OF the officers amounted
to exactly one-half that sum, or $40,-

with an income that runs into the
millions of dollars.
And the end is not yet That the
army expenditures for the current
year will in all probability be doubled
III the not far diitant future, is the
news that comes from official sources.
Under plans and recommendations
Low drawn up, the present garrison
on the Island of Oahu is to be in
creased by three more regiments of
infantry, two batteries of field artil-
Iery, two ambulance companies and
seven companies of coast artillery. In
addition to this increase, there are
plans on foot TO recruit all organi-
cations in the department to the maxi

such plans have been CARED, to COM

Figures Show Business.
The IL portance of large standing
army of .well-trained, well-disciplined
men to merchants, business men,
bankers, contractors, as well as to the
community at large, may be seen in
part from items of expenditure fur
nished by Major B. Frank Cheatham,
chief quartermaster, and based upon
the present strength of troops serv-
ing in the department.
As an example of the increase in
expenditures since the arrival of
troops on January 18th, the estimate
of subsistence expenditures for the
current year, as contrasted to the year
previous, is interesting. This estimate
is of especial Importance to local
merchants since the expenditure for
