+
+AN INSTANCE OF THE PRACTICAL VALUE OF "PURE SCIENCE"
+
+
+The practical value of the service of the geological profession is, with
+every year, being more and more appreciated, especially among people who
+are developing the mineral resources of our country. Nevertheless, we
+still hear men who speak of geologists as theorists that render our
+profitable industries but little assistance. It is true that much of the
+work that geologists do has but a remote bearing on practical questions.
+The fact is that in geology, as in other sciences, one can never know
+when a purely scientific observation may turn out to have a practical
+application. Paleontologists who study the minutest details of fossils
+have been held up as impractical people, even though their science has
+more than once proved to be of the greatest practical importance for the
+finding of valuable natural deposits. Certainly those who have been most
+prominent in the promotion of paleontology as a science have seldom, if
+ever, had any economic motive in the pursuit of their work. I think the
+same is true of our leading petrographers. I believe that the men who
+have advanced the science of geology most, have seldom contributed much
+to the practical application of the principles they have discovered.
+Much scientific work naturally appears unprofitable or useless to the
+uninitiated. I shall here relate a case that suggests how entirely wrong
+it may be to regard as of no economic value any geologic fact, however
+insignificant it may appear.
+
+In the summer of 1890 I took occasion to make a trip to the Black Hills
+in South Dakota in order to profit, as I could, by a few weeks' tramping
+in this interesting region. Going one day in a southwest direction from
+Minnekahta, to look for fossil cycads, I stumbled on a block of
+sandstone with a rather smooth surface on which were some peculiar
+markings, such as I had never seen figured or described. The rock was
+evidently a block from the Dakota sandstone. Its smooth upper surface,
+which represented a bedding plane, was covered with a thin coating of
+silt or fine clay which adhered to the block. The markings were in this
+clay. They were straight, shallow grooves from one-half to two inches in
+length, and from one-sixteenth to one-eighth inch in width. They were
+joined into patterns in which some sprang out from the sides of others
+and again themselves sent out other branches. Some crossed each other. I
+noticed that there was a quite uniform angle of divergence in these
+branches, and I was able to make out that this usual angle was about
+sixty degrees. I also noted that the grooves narrowed to sharp points.
+Somehow, immediately I concluded that the cracks were the result of ice
+crystals, and I at once saw the propriety of frozen water having existed
+in an age during which deciduous trees began to appear. This was theory.
+We have since that time learned to know that cold climates far antedate
+the coming of the dicotyledons.
+
+As I had no suitable photographic equipment, I took pains to make
+accurate drawings of a part of the pattern as it appeared on the rock.
+My original drawing is shown in Plate I. A brief description of these
+markings was later furnished in the Scientific American, of February 19,
+1895.
+
+It took me some years to find any similar markings again. In the early
+spring of 1903 I had occasion to make a visit to Mexico, when I spent a
+half day in Ojinaga, which is a little village south of Presidio, in
+Texas, on the Mexican side of the river. Some sidewalks in this little
+village are built of flags of limestone belonging to the Eagle Ford
+formation. To my great delight I found some of these slabs having
+precisely the same kind of markings that I had noted on the sandstone in
+Dakota. Naturally I attached some importance to the fact that the Eagle
+Ford corresponds quite closely in age to that of the Dakota sandstone.
+Both were made at about the beginning of the upper Cretaceous age. I
+noticed here a considerable variation in the closeness of the patterns
+of the markings. Occasionally they were found as separate single lines,
+several inches removed from each other; and on other rocks they would
+be found crossing in close networks. In the summer of 1904 I again found
+my ice markings on a layer of arenaceous limestone in the same formation
+in the Big Bend country in Texas. This time I collected some specimens
+which were subsequently photographed. One of these photographs is shown
+in Plate II. Again in 1906 I noticed the same markings on some thin
+sandy flags which occur in the Del Rio clay near the city of Del Rio. In
+this case the needle-like crystals were somewhat more slender than those
+previously seen, and some were slightly curved and somewhat more
+elongated. These of course interested me as showing the occurrence of
+freezing temperatures no doubt at a somewhat earlier time than that
+pertaining to my previous observations.
+
+During all these years my residence was in Illinois, and I was naturally
+watching for similar markings in recent mud, resulting from late and
+early frosts. I found them in the fall of 1909. At this time some
+excavations were being made in the loess in Rock Island, when some rains
+fell in the late fall. These rains evidently happened to give the mud
+the amount of moisture necessary for such crystals to develop, as the
+ground froze. The rains had washed the loess extensively, and I found a
+number of places where it lay redistributed, with a fairly smooth
+surface. It was evident that the moisture content of the ground,
+together with the temperature conditions, determined the size and the
+closeness of the frozen patterns. In places the crystals were long and
+slender, in others they were short and stout. At some points they were
+straight and in others slightly curved. Here and there the patterns were
+close enough to resemble the fine lines which we sometimes notice in the
+hoarfrost on windowpanes. In other places the crystals occurred in
+radiating groups, and elsewhere they would form scattered separate
+units. For preserving a record of what I saw, I poured plaster over
+several patterns and had these casts photographed, as appears in Plates
+VIII, IX, X. Placing these side by side with the photographs of the
+patterns I have photographed from the Eagle Ford, it appears to me that
+no doubt can be left as to the origin of the markings found in the
+fossil state.
+
+Recently I have found that these ice crystal marks are quite common at
+one horizon in the Eagle Ford beds of Brewster County, in Texas. There
+is also a layer in which they can be usually seen in the vicinity of
+Austin, Texas. This lies about twenty-five feet below the Austin Chalk,
+near Austin. A like layer occurs about 100 feet below the Austin Chalk
+in the Big Bend country. Here I have found the markings in localities
+thirty miles apart. They occur at the north point of Mariscal Mountain
+and in a number of places near the Fossil Knobs and on the Chisos Mining
+Company property at Terlingua.
+
+Unprofitable as observations on such a simple matter as this may seem, I
+find that other geologists have given it some attention. Quite recently,
+Dr. John M. Clarke[A] has figured slabs showing what has been described
+as _Fucoides graphica_, by Hall. The markings figured by Professor
+Clarke are undoubtedly of the same kind as those I have found in the
+Eagle Ford. They occur in the Upper Devonian in New York. I also find
+that the formation of ice crystals in wet mud has been observed in the
+clays about Boston by Marbut and Woodworth.[B] Other observations of
+similar recent markings are said to have been made by some English
+geologists.
+
+To "practical people" it may indeed appear that no more unprofitable or
+more idle curiosity could be indulged in, than making observations on
+what kind of crystals are formed when water freezes in mud. I must
+confess that my own first observations had no motive whatever, except
+for the desire to know something new; and I never expected that anything
+I could learn about these fossil marks would ever turn out to have any
+practical application, at least not in my own work.
+
+But it has turned out differently. For some time, I have been called
+upon occasionally to advise with regard to the finding of the ore in one
+of our quicksilver mines in West Texas. It is now a well established
+fact that the distribution of the ore in this mine, and I believe in the
+entire Terlingua district, bears a definite relation to geological
+horizons. Successful mining requires search in these horizons. The
+cinnabar, as it appears, has accumulated in greatest quantity under
+impervious rocks such as shales and marls along planes that separate
+these from underlying rocks of more open texture, mostly limestones. The
+ore has clearly come from below and has risen through fissure planes,
+which in some cases separate large blocks of the Cretaceous formations.
+The best ore has been found under the basal part of the Boquillas flags,
+and under the Del Rio clay in the upper part of the Georgetown
+limestone. The workings must be so arranged in the mine that these
+horizons can be entered on both sides of a fault fissure. The problem of
+locating the depth of the desirable horizons in the mine in question
+would be easy enough, if it were not for the fact that the outcropping
+rocks consist of a series of sediments with few characteristic fossils.
+Most of the fossils which occur extend through a range of several
+hundred feet and the beds themselves are quite uniform in character,
+consisting of alternating thin layers of impure limestones and marls. An
+attempt was made to correlate the outcropping beds by close examination
+of the layers exposed, but the result was not very satisfactory. A close
+scrutiny made of each layer on the section resulted, however, in the
+finding of two features that enabled me to measure the throw of the
+fault under investigation. Interbedded in the Boquillas flags there are
+some thin layers of bentonite, which are quite persistent and can be
+followed for several miles. By comparing the distances between these
+layers and by taking note of their individual thickness, it was possible
+to make a correlation that seemed to be correct. But the proof sought
+fell just short of being certain. In cases of this kind one always looks
+for corroborating facts to check one's conclusions. I found this check
+in the discovery of the layer which carries ice crystal markings in
+these beds. The layer had a definite relation to the seams of bentonite,
+and, with this additional evidence, I was confident there was no
+possible chance of a mistake. It enabled me to locate not only the right
+horizon but also a horizon in the underlying heavy Comanchean limestone,
+which is water-bearing, and which must be avoided to prevent serious
+injury to the underground operations. I need not add that the
+information obtained was of real practical value in this case.

+Plate I. Forms of frost cracks seen on the exposed flat bedding plane of
+a block of Dakota sandstone in a ravine a few miles southwest of
+Minnekahta, South Dakota. As sketched in the field. Natural size.

+
+
+PLATE II
+
+
+Plate II. Photographs of fossil imprints of ice crystals on flags of the
+Eagle Ford. The upper rock shown in the Plate is from the south side of
+Cuesta Blanca in Brewster County, Texas, and shows casts of crystals
+which represent fillings of sandy mud projecting slightly down into an
+underlying bed of more argillaceous material. The lower part of the
+figure shows a similarly marked flag from the same formation at a point
+about five miles north of the old Boquillas postoffice near Tornillo
+Creek, east of the Chisos Mountains, in Texas. Here are seen the
+original grooves made by the ice on a layer of muddy material later
+buried. Slightly reduced.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE II]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE III
+
+
+Plate III. Photograph of fossil casts of a close tangle of ice crystals
+seen in a stony calcareous layer in the Eagle Ford shale in Walnut
+Creek, about eight miles north of Austin, Texas. This tangle is closer
+than any of the recent ice crystal marks figured here, but equally
+closely grown crystals have been seen by the writer on frozen mud in
+Illinois. Natural size. Compare with Plate VIII.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE III]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE IV
+
+
+Plate IV. Photograph of fossil casts of ice crystals seen on some stony
+flags in the upper part of the Eagle Ford at Fossil Knobs, about two
+miles northwest of the Chisos Mine in Brewster County, Texas. These may
+be characterized as relatively short and scattered. This shows ridges
+projecting into the grooves formed by ice crystals on the surface of a
+muddy layer originally underlying the layer photographed. Slightly
+reduced.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE IV]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE V
+
+
+Plate V. Photograph of fossil casts of ice crystals seen on the under
+side of flaggy layer of calcareous sandy rock in the upper part of the
+Eagle Ford at Fossil Knobs, about two miles northwest from the Chisos
+Mining Company's property, Brewster County, Texas. It will be seen that
+some of the crystals are gently curved. Similar curving crystals are
+also seen in the figures showing recent growths at Rock Island,
+Illinois. Compare with Plate IX. Slightly reduced.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE V]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE VI
+
+
+Plate VI. Photograph of a thin flag of sandy limestone from the Eagle
+Ford at Fossil Knobs in Brewster County, showing molds left by ice
+crystals.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE VI]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE VII
+
+
+Plate VII. Photographs of three fragments of flags showing casts of ice
+crystals on the under side. All observations made on crystals of this
+kind indicate local differences in the forms of ice crystals presumably
+due to differences in the rate of freezing, in the texture of the mud
+and probably in variations in water content of the mud. Some crystals in
+the locality from which these specimens came, show pinnate secondary
+growths. Specimens shown here are from near the upper part of the Eagle
+Ford at a point about two miles north from the Chisos Mining Company's
+property. Brewster County, Texas. Slightly reduced.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE VII]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE VIII
+
+
+Plate VIII. Photograph of a cast made by pouring plaster over a surface
+of mud in which ice crystals had recently formed, in Rock Island,
+Illinois, after the ice in the crystals had been removed by slow natural
+sublimation into the atmosphere, leaving open cracks in the mud. The
+comb-like ridges on the plaster cast have the form of the ice crystals.
+Compare with Plate III.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE VIII]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE IX
+
+
+Plate IX. Photograph of a cast made by pouring plaster over a surface of
+mud in which ice crystals had formed, in Rock Island, Illinois, soon
+after the ice in the crystals had been removed by slow natural
+sublimation into the atmosphere, leaving open cracks in the mud. In the
+locality where this cast was made, the crystals were relatively slender,
+distant, and some gently curved, like those seen in Plate V. Slightly
+reduced.
+
+[Illustration: PLATE IX]
+
+
+
+
+PLATE X
+
+
+Plate X. Photograph of a cast made by pouring plaster over a surface of
+mud in which ice crystals had recently formed, in Rock Island, Ill., and
+where they had later been removed by natural sublimations into the
+atmosphere, leaving open cracks in the mud. It will be seen that the
+crystal growth in this case involves an x-like or radiating pattern
+formed of relatively very slender forms that almost everywhere are very
+gently curved somewhat reminding of the slender thread-like crystals
+sometimes seen in frost on windows. I have not yet seen any similar
+fossil crystal growths as slender as these. Slightly reduced.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
