Description
Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "Rosario, the second largest city in Argentina, now has a good harbor which has been deepened by dredging. There are large stockyards and refrigerating plants located in the city. Before the days of freezing meats cattle were killed chiefly for the hides and tallow. Some of the meat was salted, but most of it was thrown away. Now the meats are frozen and sent to distant ports, chiefly in western Europe. This has meant a great increase in profits for those engaged in raising cattle and sheep. It has increased the value of the lands, caused railways to be built, and brought many more people to Argentina."
