Agricultural development in the Red River Valley is clearly etched into this 1918 tactical map, which emphasizes the critical infrastructure of grain transport and drainage. The settlement of Angus serves as a local hub at the intersection of the Great Northern and an extensive network of drainage ditches, such as Ditch No. 12 and Ditch No. 43, which were vital for reclaiming the flat prairie. Further north, the town of Radium sits along the Minneapolis St. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie tracks.
