FOXHOME Township received the name of its city in section 3 from Robert A. Fox, a real estate dealer, who was proprietor of this townsite but removed to Oklahoma. The city was incorporated as a village on January 21, 1902, and reincorporated and separated from the township on June 6, 1913. The post office began in 1896, with Fox as postmaster in his home. The main industry of the community was haying; 400-500 carloads of hay were shipped each year from the Northern Pacific Railroad station.
