On This Date in Minnesota History: November 7

November 7, 1931 – “Despite an all-time low during the Great Depression, the Scandia community puts on a fair. Featured at this event [were] calves, crops, and culinary displays, and $45 in premiums. Another popular attraction [was] the ten cent lunch.”
