Timber Camps Mantle of Peace and Profit North of Missoula
In Stark near Missoula, Montana, the Nine Mile camps feed the Anaconda Copper Mining mill at Bonner with 75 million feet of timber and 320 000 stalls yearly. The lodge-like camps boast lighted dormitories, hot and cold water, and a disciplined dining hall. Lumberjacks, mostly male, live frugally, read in spare moments, and work steadily to produce mill supply for mines, smelters, and refineries across three continents.

Sunburst oil strike boosts Kevin-Sunburst field prospects
The Sunburst Oil Gag Company drilled No 1 in the Kevin Sunburst field at section 84, six miles east and two miles north of the Gordon Campbell Kevin Syndicate discovery. Initial bailing tests show about 300 barrels daily with potential for better flow as depth and conditions improve. The find signals large acreage potential, with nearby structures likely to see accelerated drilling and price surges in surrounding leases and royalties.
