which have featured the last two crop

,By the passing recently of an Order
in-Councl by the. Federal Legislature
sanction was formally given to the
construction • of a new elevator at
Tarte Pier by the Montreal Harbor:
Commissioners. ' The elevator will

Twin Ports Extension:
Now additions to the storage accom-

nearly seven million .bushels to their
capacity, and between the marketing
of the crops of 1921 and 1922 the stor-
age -capacity of.the two cities rose
from 51,405,000 bushels to 58,293,090,
giving them a storage space exceeding
any other port in the world, a position
held for years. by either Minneapolis,
Chicago, or St, Paul. This tremendous

The most significant grain elevator
construction is taking place at Van-
couver, and developments of this. na-
ture there may be taken as indicative
of ,,the established faith in the per-
manency of the grain trade. from the
Pacific port and the- ever-increasing
volume of traffic from the Prairies to
and its outlet there for the Orient and
the British Isles. Freshelevator de-
velopments at Vancouver are being so
frequently anounced that itia a diffi-
cuttmatter to keep record of them or
apprise in anything like an adequate
manner what additional storage"will
be made this year, ,
Phenomenal Vancouver Development.
The Federal Government recently
made a loan of $5,000,000 :to the Board
of Harbor Commissioners of the Port
of Vancouver to increase the capacity
of the local elevator by 500,000"bosh-
els, making a total capacity of 1,750,-
000 bushels. tI 1's' stated that the
plans of the Harbor Board involve the
construction of two more elevators
each with greater capacity than :the
Dreamt Government elevator, whilst
several private companies have an-
nounced their intentions of erecting
structures this summer, In the early
days of March tb,o Port of Vancouver
achieved its year's objective by .ex-
porting 15,000,000 bushels of grain,
the mark set tor the 1922 crop, and it
is .expected that.lthe'port's total- ship-
ments will reach 20,000,000 bushels be-
fore the close of the season.' Authori-
ties state that within a short time Van-
couver will be shipping from 100,000,000te 150,000,000 bushels o8 grain pe`'

Surnames and Their Origin
GOWER
Racial Origin—Welsh.'
Source—A place name.
Welsh family names are not always
borne by those of Welsh blood, though
it is a fairly safe assumption that
where a Welsh family name is found
fin .at least a there also you will d
por-
tion of Welsh blood. -
It was qufte "possible, however, in
the ,period of family name formation
that a Norman or a Saxon Englishman,
having settled in some section of
Wales, would most naturally and him-
self tagged with a surname indicative
of a Welsh place name, inasmuch as
the place names e all about him 'would
be Welsh. And it is true that an,ex-
captionally targe number of English
have settled in Wales. '-
ofGower, there-
fore, isoae of those which might be
borne by Englishmen as well as those
of pure Welsh
extraction.
It is simply the name of a place in
Glamorganshire, and according to the
Welsh spelling , it Is not Gower but
"Gwyn," though the pronunciation is
about tine same. The meaning of the
name is an ills'toeed, a round or an en-
circled -place. In this instance the
place IS, virtually encircled by the sea
Mid' certainrivers and 'streams.
" ARGYLE.
Racial Origin—Scottish. 0
Source—A locality.
,You will have no difficulty whatever
in guessing the source of this family
name if you are at all familiar with
the geography of the British Isles, for
you -will recognize it' -as an extensive
shire on the west coast of Scotland.
If you—bear the family name, the
chances are in favor of your ancestry
on the <pateruali side tracing back
through the male line Of Gaelic origin,
for the name of Argyle is simply the
modern form of "Barra Gbaldheal,"
which means the land of the Western
Gael, and, which • is referred_ tc by
Grant as "tire breeding place of the
Gael."
The -family name, however, while
Scottish in the sense that It is the
name of an ie an
cent Scottish.shire,
is
Eaglisib in its method of formation.
For the Gaels of Scotland, like thae
of Ireland, nearly always formed their
family', names from given names or
from clan names, and such names as
this, when found among them, indicate
the presence of English influence.

The late Lord DUfferin dreamed one
night_,that he was in a^-hearae on its
way to the cemetery. The features of
the driver were impressed on his mem-
ory when he awoke. A day or two
later he was on th,e point of entering
a lift at an hotel, when he recognized
the lift attendant;as the driver of the
hearse he had seen in Isis dream.
He stepped back and the lift as-
cended without him. As it neared the
top_ something broke. it crashed to
the bottom, killing everyone in it.
Lord Roberts recorded a remarkable
dream warning. In October, 1853, lade
fathh`t, to whom he was acting as
C., at Peshawar, had issued invitations
for adance.
Two days before 1t wastotakeplace
he was silent and despondent during
breakfast, and eventually told his son
he had" had an unpleasant dream,
which has visited him 'several times
before, and had elwaye• been followed
by the death of a near relative(
As the day wore on his depression
grew and he wanted to put off the
dance. His son dissuaded him, but
that night the dream returned and the
dance was postponed. "The nextmorn-
ing." wrote Lord Roberts; "the post
brought news of the sudden death at
Lahore of the half-sister with whom T
had stayed on my way to Peshawar,"
One night in November, 1850, Tenny-
son dreamt that Prince Albert, the
Prince Consort, eame tohisbedside
and kissed him, wihereepon ho remark-
ed to himself hi his sleep: "Very kind,
but very German!"
Next morning came Queen Victoria's
letter offering him the position of Poet
Laureate, anoffer prompted, as he dis-
covered, by Prince Albert's high opini-
on of "In Memorlam."
For more than a hundred years the
Chinese people have drunk no milk
because a- Chinese empress who was
tender-hearted and thought it a mean
trick to deprive calves of their•. nour-

gun to use it again, but it will be' a
long ' time before there are cows
enough in China to supply milk for all'
the people.

Saving Migrating Birds.
A Dutch ornithologist has hit upon
the simple plan of having perches
placed under the shutters to save
migrating birds from being killed; by
dashing themselves against the lenses
of the great lanterns of lighthouses,
when attracted ;and contused by the
glare.' Perches for thirty thousand
birds have been set up, and at Bran
daris- Light on the island of Tersclrel-
l!ng twenty thousand birds have been
!seen perching on them.
There is no more inconceivable folly
than this continued riot of expenditure

vation.—Herbert 'Hoover.
