13. Triple Effect Vacuum Evaporator, Hacienda El Progreso

Description:
This photograph was taken by Capt. Rollo Beck in 1905. It is of a triple effect vacuum evaporator manufactured by McOnie Harvey & Co., Ltd., Glasgow. Sugar was concentrated by passing cane liquor through three vessels, each with an increasingly higher vacuum and lower temperature in order to achieve evaporation. Not only did the evaporator reduce the amount of required fuel through steam re-circulation and evaporation at lower temperatures, but it also protected the sugar product from destruction at higher temperatures.

18. Invasive Vegetation, Road to La Soledad, San Cristóbal, in 2014

Description:
Exotic invasives quickly colonize abandoned agricultural lands in the verdant landscapes of the highland ZUEs. This increases the effort required to bring farms back into production and incentivizes their abandonment. This wall of vines along the road leading to La Soledad, is typical of vegetative growth in the ZUE agricultural landscapes.

19. A Family of Village Residents in Hacienda El Progreso

Description:
Estimates of of the hacienda's population vary through time, but the relative dearth of women on the island was always noted. Accusations of promiscuity and multiple unions were said to be common, and some observers mentioned that the lack of women was a root cause for conflict between male workers. An 1889 census counted 213 men, 54 women, and 20 children on the island.
