The agricultural plains of central Iowa, where the borders of Boone, Story, and Polk counties meet, are defined here by a dense grid of rural schoolhouses and the expansion of the regional rail network. Early twentieth-century life centered on small, decentralized education, with dozens of local schools such as Eureka School, Nip-and-tuck School, and Fieldberg School spaced at regular intervals across the townships of Palestine and Garden.
