GEOLOGIC SECTION FROM KANSAS CITY WEST OF ABILENE, KANSAS. 
ExpLanation or Prare IX.—This section (from Univ. Geol. Surv. Kan., vol. I, pl. 6) extends from Abilene along the Kansas river to Kansas City. It represents in a degree the peculiar nature of the topography to which this paper refers. 
The eastern extremities of the bluffs are limestone-capped, and the strata dip to the west.
