Larimore and the surrounding prairies of Grand Forks County are captured here in the mid-1930s, showing a landscape defined by its grid-iron agriculture and the critical influence of the Great Northern railroad. The railway is the spine of the region, connecting the grain-handling centers at Arvilla, Kempton, and the junction at Hannah Junc. This era shows a dense network of local education, with numerous numbered schoolhouses such as School No 111 and School No 87 situated at regular intervals to serve the rural farm families of Elm Grove and Arvilla townships.
