DIRT STORM IS
BLOWING OVER
GOPHER STATE
Second Severe Storm in 10
Days-MOtOrists Have
10 Use Lights

Ellsworth. Mimi. May 4.-R-
Binding dust storms again covered
southwestern Minnesota and north
ern Iowa today, making necessary the
use of lights in motoring.
Reports from various parts of
Mobiles county told Of the dust clouds
being swept by strong south winds
over the same territory that has
borne the brunt of series Of dirt
storms this spring.
According to reports received here
the storm was sweeping over north
crn Iowa alo1ig the southern Minneso-
Ia line.
lists were forced to turn on their
lights. At times it was impossible
to see but few feet. The dirt was
swirling over the fields and drifting
in some places, much as it did 10 days
ago.
This territory has been swept by
several dirt storms this spring, ira
versing Big Stone, Mobiles, Lac Qui
Parle, Lyon, Pipestone and other
counties in southwestern Minnesota.
A light rain fell in this territory
Saturday, night, but the soil dried
rapidly and the fields were again at
the mercy Of the wind today.
Many farmers had just started re-
seeding fields that were ruined by
the previous storms. 1t is/impossi-
Bile to estimate, with any degree Of
accuracy, the extent of the damage
caused by this springs dust storms.
