Abstract

This paper treated particularly of the morainic till of the Missouri Valley. To explain the origin of this till, there are two theories acceptable: one that it is sub-glacial, the other, that it was formed at the bottom of a glacial lake, gradually filling with debris brought from a glacier and the shore, by ice-rafts.
