HIDDEN DOCKS AT CALCITE - Here is one of Henry Ford's freighters, Edgewater, being loaded with crushed limestone - used in steel manufacture - at a dock hidden from public view by great mills, giant conveyors, and huge piles of material. This particular boat leaves no smoke trail behind it, as it is a Diesel motor ship. The docks at Calcite are busy during navigation season, a special parade of boats plying between here and various steel mill ports.
