Bounty was once a small village of 200 residents, with 19 businesses, including 3 grain elevators, 2 banks, a three-story, 24-room hotel, and a newspaper called the Fertile Valley Echo. later on around 1911, Bounty had a professional baseball team that played other towns in the area. Today Bounty sits lonely on the prairie skyline, for all that remains is a few buildings, a community hall, and a cemetery.
