About this map

Agricultural life in eastern South Dakota is defined by the section lines and small rail-centered settlements documented in this mid-1960s survey. The town of Aurora serves as a central hub, situated where the Chicago and North Western railroad cuts across the landscape. Further north, the village of Bushnell sits along the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific line, illustrating the importance of rail transport for moving grain and goods from the surrounding townships of Afton, Sherman, and Aurora.
