A view from 1939:

BABB, (4,460 alt., 25 pop.), has tourist cabins, a general store, and a post office. It was settled in 1912 as headquarters for the Reclamation Service project that diverted water from St. Mary River, which drains into Hudson Bay, across the Hudson Bay Divide to the Milk River for irrigation purposes.
