About this map

Agricultural development in the San Joaquin Valley is clearly visible in this 1920s survey, dominated by a dense grid of rural roads and irrigation works. The tiny settlement of Paige sits at the junction of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, serving as a transit point for the surrounding farmsteads. A series of country schools, including Buena Vista School, Walnut Grove School, Linder School, and Laurel School, are spaced across the landscape to serve the local ranching families. The complex hydrology of the area is represented by natural waterways like Packwood Creek and Deep Creek alongside man-made improvements such as the Tulare Canal and Rockyford Ditch. These features illustrate the early 20th-century transition from dry creek beds to a managed irrigation system that enabled intensive farming in Tulare County.
