100 Years Ago June 1915

A severe storm passed through Clear Lake and its vicinity.  A black cloud gathered and rapidly deposited a downpour of rain and considerable hail.  The wind also did damage.  Jake Sawyer lost three head of cattle that were in a pasture and were struck by lightening.

Matt Olson and Co., is full of bargains.  Vienna Style sausage, 10¢ a can; corned beef, 15¢; deviled ham, 12.5¢; potted meats and veal loaf, 10¢; boneless chicken, 45¢; oil sardines, 5¢; and fresh mackerel, 20¢.

Nice, cool buttermilk is not half appreciated as it should be.  A diet of buttermilk has saved many persons from dyspepsia and kindred ills.  Drink up.

The men who were in town last week were here on business seining carp.
