How Valley and a Mountain Range
Mere Made.

Were Made.
The United States Geological sur
vey is making investigations which
not only mean direct return of dollars
and cents to the country but also
solve numerous purely scientific prob
lens of indirect though large econom-
ic importance This is shown by num-
erous contributions to pure science
and particularly by the series of arti-
cles started within the last year or
two, entitled Shorter contributions to
general geology" One of the latest
of this series-Profession Paper 90
X, entitled ''The History of Portion
of Yampa River. Colorado. and its
Possible Bearings on That of Green
River" by E. T. Hancock, just publish
ed by the Survey-discusses how Yam
pa River. in Colorado. and the noun
tains which it crosses we're formed.
The most remarkable feature of this
valley and the Green River valley. of
which it is a tributary, is that they
completely transact high mountains.
In other mountain ranges streams rise
neal the crest and flow outward. but
the Yampa and Green flow from the
outside into and across mountains.
Now. geologists have shown that most
valleys are simply enlarged gullies
which in thousands of wears have been
gradually washed out by the streams
tina. flow through them; also that
mountains throughout the earth have
been made, first. by an upheaval of a
portion of the earths crust, and sec
ond. by this process Of washing out
huge trenches or valleys across the
upheaved area. Concerning Yampa
and Green rivers, the question arises,
7 i'd they exist before the mountain
area was upheaved. and was the up
heaval so gradual that they were able
to wash their valleys deeper as fast as
the upheaval progressed. or did the
upheaval take place long before these
rivers were formed. and were the
mountains buried under sand and silt
before these streams acquired their
present courses?
The report referred to sets forth
much evidence gathered by the author
and others which has bearing on
these questions, and from this evil
dence it appears that the mountain
range long antedates the river val
leys. and that it was completely
buried under great deposits of sand
and silt before Sampa river came into
existence. The evidence tends to
show that when first formed, these
streams flowed across a flat high
plain under which were buried the
mountains of hard rock. In the course
of geologic ages the streams have
washed away the sand and silt from
the surrounding country, leaving the
mountains of hard rock standing as
they are today. Because of the un-
yielding nature of the rocks in the
mountains. the valleys are there mar
row and canyon-like. wrereas the out
side mountains, where the materials
underlying the surface were more
easily washed, the valleys are broad
and the streams have slight fall. 1t
therefore appears that the mountains
in this region are far older than the
streams and the valleys which cut
through them.
