Agate Fossil Beds
May Become Mecca
of Tourist Hordes
(C. Durant Jones, in Lincoln Star)
Away up near the beginning of the
Niobrara river, in Sioux county, is a
little country village called "Agate.
On a ranch near that place lives Cap
tain John Cook, and his son, Harold.
But this is not a story of ranching,
interesting tonic, does
not indicate the purpose of this sketch.
Vnr out of the daily round of the
mnrWa life there may come an in
teresting tale of other things than cat
tiik m rminH-uns. or shiDDing.
it is a brief tale of a fossil bed, one
nf th two createst in the United
ct.taa th nther beintr located in Cali
fornia. If the average Nebraskan had
spent a season in California, and had
visited the fossil beds there, he would
Vi a ua a nrttv tale to tell of his sight-
uainv nrnhahlv unaware that he
micrht )iav seen something just
wonderful in his home state. In fact,
many thousands have seen the Agate
fossil beds, ana many outers win vj
a visit to this curiosity when they
learn more about it and when the roads
in that part or tne siaie are put in
Brh shaue as to invite tourist travel.
. The possibilities of pulling tourist
travel to Box Butte and Sioux counties
are just now beginning to be realized
by the boosters in tnai par vi us
ciafA MIA of whom is Harold Cook
himself. He recently visited Alliance

rrn hnnlM of siarhtseers. About
thirty-flve hundred tourists visited the

It may be a surprise to most peo
Vim that thousands of skel
nrA-historie animals have been
v.. , , . . . .
taken from tnese Deas ana muiipcu w
all parts of the world. These have
been of inestimable value to scientists
every where, in helping them to de
termine the origin or tne various
sTwwies. The library in the University
of Nebraska contains a number of
lantern slides, showing these skeletons,
nd the "restorations," exhibiting what
the appearance of those animals must
have been in tne pre-niunc uays.

in which they have a number of ex
hibits stored, but which is totally in
adequate for exhibition purposes. Not
only are they cramped for space, but
the relics are in constant danger of
destruction as there is no protection
against fire. The loss to the scientific
world would be incalculable from such
a disaster, and so the father and Fon
are planning the erection of a museum,
constructed of fireproof material, but
which will be amply commodious to
properly house the exhibits.
It is proposed to make the museum
replica of the old Fort Laramie, as
is appeared in 1836. It is to be a
hollow square, the two ends to be
equipped for the display of the speci
mens that have been taken out of the
bed. It is hoped that some of the uni-
erities or scientists or both may
be interested to the point where they
will assist in procuring funds with
which to finance the enterprise. Cap
tain Cook has already created con
siderable interest among friends in
the east, in the project, and it looks
feasible. It is hoped t raise a fund
sufficiently large so that the interest
will be adequate for the completion
of the museum and for the work of
fuither excavation.
Under the state law, the park com
mission might -accomplish something
toward this end if there were any
funds for that purpose. But there
seems to be none, so if these wonder
ful fossil beds are to be developed, and
"played up" so as to attract tourist
travel, some independent agency must
be employed.
Considerable interest has been
aroused at Alliance, for the business
men of that town realize that if the
fossil beds can be featured as a strong
attraction, a cut-off from the Lincoln
highway to the Black Hills can be con
structed through that section, so as to
include Agate and the fossil beds in
the routing. This will mean some
more agitation for good roads and th
expenditure of considerable money for
road building, for just now, in order
to reach the Cook ranch, it is neces
sary to traverse some of the worst
road3 in the country.
However, the Agate fossil beds are
but one of the many natural attrac
tions to be found in Nebraska, and
there would be a pronounced increase
in state -interest and state pride if
each citizen would take as a slogan,
on his sight-seeing trips, "See Ne
braska First."
Mrs. Asquith says that American
women are inferior to American men.
