to eCcp here from = t-w re- time to number
OF oays, Tho prIIc'eal shops of the railroad
CON Gay between erei1erd snd the Pacific Ocean
are EoR being autlt hers. They will give en-
ployment - probably 800 men, Pine timber is
plenty in Ire surrounding country, and various
saw1niIls IL the immediate vicinity of the town
furnish work Tor hosts nf employ s. The valleys
ot the Yellowstone, roie'je al Smith rivers are
Tast gnd vory rIaa IA agricultural resources, and
vel ee-ted- Their trade Is entirely tributary
to Livingston, While magnificent cattle ranches
abound IN every direction, vast mines OF true BIZ
luminous coal, which can be cooked for ~ cents
Ter ton: also tlca iron mines arc within two to
four mica from town, are being worked.
The gold placer miues OF tmIgTant Gulch, Bear
CreS}ce, Nil Nrss+, sud Aight-Alile Creek, are
ali IN the Yellowstone Valley just south of Liv-
ingst0n, directly tributary TO 1t, and are being
actively worked, THAI wonderfully rich quartz
country, silver arc gold, knowu as the Clarl's
Fork Dletr1ct, is south IF town, and Livingston
is tho headquarters aud Quitting point. In
meuse deposits Of limestone, sandstone, clay and
fne prlch clay, are but two miles distant and the
manufacture OF lime is already an important in
dustry this beng the first point after leaving Do
iuth oa the east, ,00G niiieg, whsre lime rock is

of construction. The Pgrl. Addition on which

cheapest business property offered Tor sale-the
tendency OF business and business improvements
being largely in that direction. There are two

L,k2 Gil neIg countries, the opportunities for
profitable employment are very good and work

chances In and around the town. Livingston ID
less theu year old, yet 1t 10 probably the second
largest city In Montana: IL is not surprising
When one considers that agriculture alone has
made Fargo; the Northern Pacific company's rail-
rosd shops, Braiuerd; summer visitors, Saratoga;
lumber, Eau Ciaire; silver and geld mines, Den
ver; cattle Kansas City; iron Eud COAL Plttsburg;
that combination Of nH OK thess factors as Is
found here should, within the next five years
make this point city Of at least $4,000 people.
