The
site that was Arno

Arno was
a community promoted to out-of-state settlers looking for fertile land. Evidently
the promoters weren't convincing enough, or the settlers moved on to greener pastures
- or at least pastures that had some green.
A post office was granted
and was open from 1907 until 1915.
The community had a population of
ten in the 1930s - making it a rival to relatively nearby Orla.
Something occurred in the late 1940s to make the resident population leave.
The 1950 census enumerator found the town empty.
