Old Time Blizzard Hits Kossuth County Hard
A historic blizzard last Friday caused extensive damage across Kossuth County with winds up to forty miles per hour for a day. Telegraph and telephone lines were ruined, stock losses mounted into the thousands, and windmills were toppled. A grocery store front was shattered by the storm, cattle and hog losses were documented, and a buried infant death sparked a sorrowful travel night for a family seeking Algona. The storm affected families near Whittemore and North Dakota, while a separate incident recounted a boy from a Catholic orphanage and a neighboring farmer during the same period. A regional Farmers and Teachers Institute in Algona will cover first aid, tuberculosis, silos, hog cholera, forest preservation, stock feeding, and Lincoln as part of a multi-day program.
