FIG. 1. 
A vertical geological section from Vinita, Okla., to the eastern border of Cowley county, Kansas, passing through or near to the various towns and cities as named in the plate. The several limestones exposed along 
this section are named in the plate. Positions for the interbedded shales and limestones are left vacant to avoid confusion. By comparing this vertical section with others farther north in Kansas it will be noted that a 
number of the limestones prominent elsewhere are entirely absent here, such as the Bethany Falls, Mound Valley, Iola, and others. It should be noted especially that, while this section is accurate as to number, name and 
sequence of limestones, the small variations from the horizontal are merely diagrammatic, and do not represent actual anticlines and synclines.

A vertical geological section from the state line south of Chetopa extending northwest by way of the several towns and cities named in the 
plate to the eastern limit of Butler county. In general the comments above given for fig. 1 are applicable here.
