The Souris River meanders through Ward County, shaping a landscape defined by its riparian bends and the deep incisions of First Larson Coulee and Second Larson Coulee. This 1940s survey reveals a rural infrastructure built around local education and transit, anchored by the settlement of Surrey. The presence of several rural schoolhouses, including Bell Sch No 2 and School No 1, indicates a distributed community of prairie farmsteads during this era of the Missouri River Basin development program.
