Nebraska Fossils Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Nebraska Fossils Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Conservation and Survey Division
This paper must not be mistaken for a report on the fossils of Nebraska. It is merely a circular letter to correspondents describing and figuring those fossils only which occasion frequent comment. In two recent papers of the Survey consideration was given to the common minerals and rocks of Nebraska, and it seems opportune to briefly discuss our fossils in a like manner. Probably no other State can boast of such a well-preserved and varied fauna.
Nebraska Rocks Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Nebraska Rocks Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Conservation and Survey Division
This leaflet it intended to serve as an answer to correspondents who make inquiry about the rocks of Nebraska1. Unfortunately for those interested in such matters, the rocks of the State are few in number, and are deeply buried from view by sand and soil, so there are thousands of square miles in which even a pebble is a rarity. That our rocks are level and undisturbed is practically true. Still there are some surprisingly interesting folds and faults.
The Round Ligament Of Nebraska Proboscideans, Erwin H. Barbour
The Round Ligament Of Nebraska Proboscideans, Erwin H. Barbour
Conservation and Survey Division
Comparisons of the acetabula of various mastodons and mammoths common to Nebraska show conclusively that absence of the round ligament is not a characteristic of the proboscidea, as generally accepted. From the specimens in our collections, there is evidence that the ligament was not on! y present, but was uncommonly large and well developed in the earlier Nebraska proboscideans. Examination of material collected since 1891, and preserved in the cabinets of the Nebraska State Museum. and the Morrill Geological Collections, makes it apparent that all Nebraska proboscideans had round ligaments, though perhaps the latest survivors did not.
Nebraska Minerals Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Nebraska Minerals Which Excite Common Inquiry, Erwin H. Barbour
Conservation and Survey Division
The Minerals, Rocks, and Fossils of Nebraska, which Excite Common Inquiry, are treated brefly in leaflets numbered 37, 37a, 37b, respectively. These are intended to serve as circular letters to correspondents. Possibly they may prove to be acceptable and helpful in a measure to teachers and others who conduct parties of school children on field excursions.

Nebraska Green Quartzite An Import Ant Future Industry, Erwin H. Barbour
Nebraska Green Quartzite An Import Ant Future Industry, Erwin H. Barbour
Conservation and Survey Division
ln southern Harlan and Franklin counties, there occur many acres of green quartzite which must be of commercial consequence when made available. It is a neglected resource upon which important industries are sure to be based. With the development of this bed in view, the Nebraska Geological Survey has examined this area. and through this leaflet wishes to place the results before possible investors.

Conservation and Survey Division
During the field season of 1913, while exploring the Pliocene beds of Brown County, Mr. A. C. Whitford, a Fellow in the Department of Geology, University of Nebraska, discovered the mandible of a new machaerodont cat. His work in this region was in the interest of the Nebraska Geological Survey and the Morrill Geological Expeditions.1
