A view from 1939:

SCOBEY, (2,450 alt., 1,259 pop), is the seat of Daniels County. Six large grain elevators rising from the prairie are evidence of the fertility of the surrounding country. During the World War and the following boom times, especially the years 1927-28, Scobey was one of the most important primary wheat markets in the Northwest. Since the drought began the lines of wagons waiting by the elevators have been much shorter than formerly.
