Photo by Kristen Cart

At an out-of-the-way location on the Great Plains, Kristen visited a 99,000-bushel single-leg Tillotson elevator for a photographic record. We offer her photo of a manhole cover as an enticement for three upcoming posts that explain the social and commercial importance of the first reinforced-concrete elevator at this town. Watch Our Grandfathers’ Grain Elevators for the rest of the story.
