extent their every desire. Over the range of the Little Belt mountains is the noted White Sulphur Springs. At Yogo are found the beautiful Montana sapphires. From Monarch the road branches to Barker, a lead producing town. On my return I stopped at Belt, a flourishing coal mining town, where the Anaconda Copper Company get their coal and coke for the Amalgamated smelters. The Belt valley has exceptionally good ranches with extensive stock ranges surrounding.
Sand Coulee and Stocket are coal mining towns of the Great Northern Railway.
I decided on my return to Great Falls, to make a trip to Boulder Hot Springs. At Boulder is the State Deaf and Dumb Institute, and is the center of a quartz mining section. A branch railroad extends to the Elkhorn mines.
