Oxen Pulling a Cart
Image
Two teams of yoked oxen pulling carts used to transport logs to, and lumber from sawmills. There is a large, wood frame two-story building in the background, with a sign that reads, in part: "Harvesting Machines." A man holding up a whip is standing between two ox-drawn carts in the road in front of the building. Two other men are standing on an elevated platform (perhaps a loading dock) on the left. A horse-drawn carriage is moving along the road in the background on the right.
May 1902
