The cyclone picked up the house
of farmer Jansen, lifted it 200 feet
in the air and dropped it down 1OC
yards away. The twister then play
ed about the pasture five minutes
and returned, picked up the house
and dropped it down on It's founda
tion almost as it found it.
Mrs. Jansen and daughter will dit
from injuries. Four other members
of the family who We're in the house
all this time escaped with few
