Province West Preussen, east of Biitow;6. Province Ost Preussen, between Horn and Widikin. Comparing these with the moraines of America, ProfessorSalisbury remarks: In its composition from several members, in its variety ofdevelopment, in its topographic relations, in its topography, in * Professor R. D. Salisbury on Terminal Moraines in Northern Germany,in Anipric-an Journal of Science, vol. cxxxv, 1888, pp. 405, X M 458 THE ICE AGE IN NORTH AMERICA. its constitution, in its associated deposits, and in its wide sep-aration from the outermost drift limit, this morainic belt cor-responds to the extensive morainic belt of America, whichextends from Dakota to the Atlantic Ocean. That the oneformation corresponds to the other does not admit of all essential characteristics they are identical in may be their relations in time remains to be determined.
