GsEATC FALS, MONTANA.
GREAT FALLS is located at the Falls of the Missouri which furnish the greatest available water power on the Con
tinent. Is within 7 miles of the most extensive Coal and iron district in the West, immediately beyond which are
rich Silver and Copper districts. It lays tributary the best agricultural and grazing part of the Territory, and the
pineries of the Upper Missouri and tributaries. It has made more progress in the past 8 months in proportion to its size
than any other place in Montana, and is especially adapted by its natural resources and geographical position to become
the leading manufacturing center between Minneapolis and the Pacific.
The trip to Great Falls will amply repay tourists by the beauty of the scenery on the way, and they will find here
the most magnificent series of waterfalls in the world, while the surrounding country is rich in picturesque scenery.
To those wishing to improve property, lots will be sold at very reasonable prices. Fcr particulars addres H.. 0. CHOWEN, AGENT.
