Abstract

Guthrie county lies in the west central portion of the state, being in the fourth tier of counties east of the Missouri river, and occupying a similar position with reference to the southern boundary of the state. Carroll and Greene counties bound it on the north, Dallas lies to the east, Adair joins it on the south and Audubon on the west. It includes sixteen congressional townships and is divided into an equal number of civil townships. Owing to the presence of a correction line the townships of the southern tier are irregular in size and position. The county includes 593 square miles, of which a very small percentage only is unavailable for farming.
