SOME LONG, VANISHED PLANTS
Years Ago in America Described
in Government Report.

The area known as the Mississippi
embayment is low-lying region which
has alternately been submerged and
emerged since the Cretaceous time
known as the Age OF Reptiles, over
100000 years ago. 1t embraces
roughly 1900 square miles.
In past geologic ages this region
doubtless furnished congenial habitats
for several thousand specific types OF
plants of which we can never hope 10
know more than Il small number. Near
~ all these types have irrevocably
vanished and this vast area is tcnanted
today by an entirely new set Of plants.
The United States geological survey,
department OF the interior, has recent
~ published a scientific report By L.
W. Berry describing some of these
long-yanished plants the fossil remains
of which are found tol0y in many Of
the rock formations. The report gives
systematic description Of more than
500 species, in what is known as the
Wilcox and Midway formations.
The Wilcox fora is made up almost
entirely Of plants that lived along the
ancient coast. on the strand, among la
gOons and sand dunes. The physical
conditions under which the plants lived
are discussed. and conclusions are
drawn regarding the climate Of the
Eocene period compared with that Of
today in the same region.
