| Additional Information: | O.M. Burdick built a general feed and seed store next door at 107 S. Main St. After his death in 1908, his son, Edward, ran the business. In 1915, the store was sold to Arthur Sassman. He assembled and sold farm machinery here. In 1920, the building was sold to A.J. Hoops, who utilized it as a tinsmith shop. In 1902, the feed mill at 109 S. Main St. was constructed and it was originally connected to the building next door (107 S. Main St.) via a tramway. The feed mill originally processed corn, oats and barley which were sold to breweries in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
