required the coal of the cleveland field blaine county mont is described by C F bowen in a report issued by the united states geological survey in bulletin H this field lies east and north of the east end of the bearpaw mountains practically all the coal of the cleveland field occurs north of peoples creek in the northern part of the field As the surface is covered by glacial drift the coal beds are as a rule exposed only in the coulees coultes where the drift has been eroded at these places the beds are thin and are commonly separated by shale partings into two or more benches the coal has been opened at a few places by ranchers and in section 35 township 30 north range 20 east there is a small mine operated in the winter which produces about tons of coal a year the coal is similar in quality to that in the milk river field in the vicinity of chinook but is not so good as the coal from the big sandy field because of the thinness and irregularity of the coal beds it is believed that this field will not become an important producer the carbon emery counties fair which takes place at price the county seat of carbon county the and of this month will prove very instructive to those
