It has an express office, a money order postoffice with one rural route, 2 elevators and half a dozen stores. The population in 1910 was 60. The town was established in the latter '70s under the name of Buffalo Park, which is its present railroad name. It is the oldest town in the county and in 1880 was quite a flourishing little city with a newspaper.
