Montreal, Quo.—Removal of theem-
bargo
m-ba 'go against Canadian cattle has
created a- big demand for shipping
space on the part of British buyers,;
according to reliable information from'
the Shipping Federation offices here.
Last year there were • only two or
three cattle boats a week sailing from

tion of the trade, shippingofficials

per cent. hi the number of steamers
sailing from this pot weekly. -
Toronto, Ont.—According to the lat-
est legal directory,rthis city harbors
597 law firms, as against :515 a year
ago. The local army of individual
barristers and solicitors is said to be
1,200 strong. It is estimated that
there are 2,428 lawyers in Ontario, so,

that distinguished contingent.
Winnipeg, Man.—There was an in-
crerse of 51 per cent.: in the inaznigin
tion into Canada for February just

ing with February, 1922, to 66,139 for
the corresponding period closing at
the end of February.,.
Regina, Sask.—Several hundred
new silos were constructed in Saslat-
chew -an last year, and indications are
that the number erected in 1923 will
equal if not exceed that number. In
all parts of the province there is real
enthusiasm as to the possibilities of
sunflowers as: an ensilage crop and of
sweet clover as a hay and pasture crop
and the coming season will undoubted
ly-see an increase of several thousand,
acres over last year's acreage planted.

Vancouver,; B.C.-There' was a pro-
duction of over ten million .dollars in
gold and silver in the northwest dis-
tricts of British Columbia in the year
1922, representing an increase of more
than fiftyper cent. over the previous
year. So many properties have been
brought practically to -the-production

point that the coming season should
see exceptional progress.

in the immigration laws of Canada

Why Carnegie Founded
Libraries:
• Even at an early age Andrew `Car-
negio believed in hooks. The impulse
to found libraries -so we learn from
Mr. A. B. Farquhar in the First Million
the Hardest—came 'oto hiin when he
wee' only a messenger -boy.
Early ,one morning, says, Mr. Farqu-
har, Carnegie was sent with a dispatch,
to Mr. Anderson, the steel master et
Allegheny, with instructions to wait
for an answer. Mr. Andcrson liad re-
turned late the night before, and the
butler said he could not'wake -him.
Young Carnegie welled into thea,
library and became immerged, in a
volume on steel making and the tre-
mendous advantages of steel over iron.
When Mr. Andersonfinall ' came clow
y n
with his: answer the -boy turned and
ap•olo ized, for'haviu taken the book.
P g g
Mr. Anderson asked • whether he was
interested%' in steel.
"Oh, yes, it is fascinating to me,"
Carnegie replied.'•
„Carnegie
the book home and read it
and return It when you are through
with it,' said Mr, 'Anderson.
Carnegie did so -and ways told to take
another;then 1lir. Anderson , said he
might have access„ to the library. Car-
negie said ;to mo` that then' and ;,here
he made up lila•-mind that .if he ever
beeamo wealthy heswould found,
,y
libraries and give ounmen the same
opportunity that he was enjoying.

Listen! On sweetening air
The blackbird growing bold
Flings, out, where green boughs'giisteny
Three splashes of wild gold.
Daughter of,A.prll, hear!.
.49 1 sing, 0 barefoot l oyl
That carol e£ "wild sweet' water
Has washed the world with joy.
G1Iitten, 0 fragrant earth,
Assailed by heaven anew,
And 0, ye` lavers;' listen
NV1t111 e'o that glisten, too.
