The Arkansas River defines the southern boundary of this 1930s landscape, where complex meanders like Ste Marie Bend and Kelly Bend shape the surrounding alluvial plains. This era of the Delta is characterized by a dense network of drainage canals and bayous, including Wabbaseka Bayou and Indian Bayou, which support an agricultural economy centered on settlements like Altheimer, Wabbaseka, and Sherrill. The infrastructure of the period is prominent, with the St Louis Southwestern Railway connecting small rural stops and a Penal Farm to larger markets.
