Conservation and Survey Division

About the middle of July, 1907, while engaged by the Nebraska City Commercial Club in examining the geology of Nebraska City and vicinity, the writer was called b the farm of Mr. C. B. James to look at a bed of what was supposed to be fire clay. This proved to be a Carboniferous deposit of stratified micaceous sandstone, interstratified with a fine compact shale, both of which are yellow in color and very fragile when wet.
