Chestnut, IL, has the distinction of being the geographic center of
Illinois. In honor of this honor, they erected a grain silo along with this
sign.
Since Illinois didn't get the geographic center of the US, they were awarded
the city names of Normal and Standard City. Consolation prizes, not to be
confused with parting gifts.
