| DESCRIPTION | THE PLANT - This is 1/5 of a picture of one of the limestone quarries of the Atlas Portland Cement Company in its early years. There is a lot of activity in this picture, i.e. horse drawn carts and workers. Although none of the workers are identified, it would be a safe assumption that they are immigrant laborers who live in the company city of Ilasco. |
