A WYOMING FOSSIL QUARRY.
Notably Valuable Finds In the &C.
oIoGiraI Wonderland of the
Northwest

The state of Wyoming is a gcolog.
ical wonderland and the reason for
this is that, geologically speaking,
it is the newest land ON the con.
tincnt. The MeSozoic period has left
rich fossil deposits in this state, the
remains varying i'm size from little
invertebratc ammonitcS To the giant
vertebrate dinosaurs Of the Jura Ssic
age. In 1899 thoroughly organized
scientific expedition. composed of St
members. spent some 40 davs i'm eN.
ploring and examining the fossil eN.
poSures and gathering specimens
and the result of their labors was
fully described at the time. SAYS the
Scientific American.
\ fossil quarry. where smaller spec.
linens are found, is situated in the
extreme southwestern part of Wyom.
ing, near the town of Kemmerer, at
the summit of mountain 5000 feet
above the sea level. The geological
formation is known as the Green
River Tertiary" The shale is lumin.
ated and carboniferous and some
afline and oil in large quantities. The
quarry is worked exclusively by hand
that IS to say, no blasting opera.
tionS are carried on. The shale j.
split into slabs, broken with sledge
hammers and thrown over the bank
by hand. When the slabs containing
he specimens are cut and taken out
they are very moist. and are dried out
To about a third of their original
weight before the cleaning process be-
gins. II is difficult to clean the fos siis
when the Shale is too DRY. for the i'm.
pressions are exceedingly thin and it
requires the utmost skill and care TO
clean the more delicate specimen.
Knives and saws made especially for
the purpose are used. The hut or cabin
Is situated at the foot of the noun.
tain. more than a mile from the quarry.
and the workmen bring the slabs To
this place TO prepare them. The speci.
mems when they are properly cleaned
are exceedingly beautiful the fishes
with all their bones outlined being
especially tere~ting.. The Green
river fishes are considered the finest
specimens Of fossil fishes. although
they may not be more perfect. as far
as skeletons are concerned. than those
from Monte Bolca. Italy. The Monte
Bolca specimens are in softer and
more chalky stone than those from
Wyoming. and hence do not present so
fine an appearance. The collections
from the Green river tertiary are not.
however. rich in species.

several days, during which he IL
fed on carefully weighed quantities
of certain foods. A current of air is
drawn through the box by ma
chine pump. Not only is all the
waste from the mans body analyzed
and weighed, but the air is subjected
to analysis before il goes in and
after it comes out of the box. By
the latter analysis it is discovered
just what elements and how much
OF them have been given of from the
lungs of the man in breathing.
Everything that goes into the body
of the subject being known, as well
as the outgo, it is easily ascertained
what has been used TO build up the
tissues, 10 make blood, etc. The
man in the box, which has glass win
dows, may spend his time in idleness
or he may be occupied actively for
several hours of the day In this
way comparisons are obtained as TO
food consumed and results accom-
plished under varying conditions.
What they learn about the man in
