THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, SEPTEMBER 1, 1929—PART 1. SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES IN WASHINGTON SCIENTISTS T0 SEE NEBRASKA FOSSILS P;a‘rty of 200 Will Inspect " Deposits Called World’s Greatest Saturday. Special Dispatch to The Star. AGATE, Nebr., August 31.—Two hun- dred archaeologists, paleontologists and zoologists are coming to Agate Springs on September 7 to investigate the won- derful fossil beds which have been de- veloped under University Hill on the Cook ranch here. In the 20 years the quarries have been worked they have proved the greatest in the ~world. Fossils from them are in all great university museums throughout both America and Europe. ‘The scientists are expected to stay hete for several days. While here they will try their hands at excavating ele- phants, camels, five-toed horses, rhin- oceros, tigers and the fossil remains of other animals that once roamed over what now is Nebraska. They will have no trouble locating these fossils, as it has been calculated that in all the sur- rounding country there is a fossil for every 15 square feet of surface. All they will have to do is to dig almost anywhere to strike the fossil of some animal of the far-off ages. ... Deposits Given to Universities. The greatest fossil bed so far discov- ered is the strata underlying Univer- sity Hill on the Cook ranch, which Capt. J. H. Cook, owner of the Agate Spring ranch, gave to the universities of the country several years ago. Any university or college may send an ex- pedition to the fossil beds, excavate all it, pleases and keep all finds. For years Amherst, Northwestern, Columbia, Ne- | braska, Yale and a half dozen other big universities have maintained perma- | nent camps on University Hill, where |} each Summer scientists with pick and shovel take out great fossils. “The bed is approximately 4 feet thick and about a quarter of a mile in COLUMBIA KINDERGARTEN TRAINING SCHOOL i October_ 3, 19 PPINCOTT, P Reopens.

It lies about 90 feet below the apex of the hill and 120 feet above the level of the Niobrara River, Top- ping the hill is about 10 feet of gand- stone. Next is a d4-inch stra§® of agate. Then comes 80 feet of Zand- stone, followed by the fossils embedded in a 4-foot strata of sandstone of an earlier period. Below the fossil strata is 120 feet of sandstone to the water level. Two Theories Advanced. Animals represented in the 4-foot fossil strata are from the Lower Miocene and Upper Oligocene ages. Just how many millions of years ago they lived science does not say. ‘The age of mam- mals has been timed by certain scien- tists as having iis beginning about 40,- 000,000 years ago. Scientists hold two theories as to why so many different kinds of animals died at the same time and in the same place. One is that long ago the bed of the Niobrara River was 12 feet above its present level, and so long ago that 100 feet of stone has been deposited since a great epidemic occurred among the animals. Driven by fever to seek water, these animals came in immense numbers to the Niobrara to drink, and died there, their remains being covered by sand and deposits. Later the Rocky Mountains were thrown up and helped to cover the skeletons. Another theory is that when the plains were covered by water, that over Nebraska was a lake 500 miles long and many hundred feet deep, with a great eddy where the Cook ranch is located. Animals which died anywhere in that section were brought into this eddy and there dropped, according to this theory. Earliest Trace of Man. It was in this vicinity that the fa- mous tooth, “the greatest paleontologi- cal discovery of all time,” according to Dr. Henry Fairfield Osborn, curator of the American Museum of Natural His- tory in New York, was found some years ago. Scientists say this tooth is Emerson 77th Consecutive Year 1738-1740 P St. Day School—Late Afternoon School—Co-Educational Accredited in the U.

Search for other portions of the skele- ton has been carried on continuously ever since the tooth was discovered. Dr. Osborn says the tooth is at least 600,000 years old, and more than likely is 1,000,000 years old. When the scientists come here next week they may find a tiger with sword- like teeth, an elephant as big as a two- story house, a calf-size rhinoceros, a horse as small as a dog, a hog as big as a modern elephant, a camel the size of a goat, or something tht differs as widely from the modern species.
