Additional Details:
The beautiful little city of Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, is as proud of its name as our country is of its Washington. High above the buildings and towers may e seen the immense plants of the Sleepy Eye Milling Company, where are manufactured the finest flours and cereals in the world. "ISH-TAK-A-BAH", meaning "the man with the drooping eyelids" or "sleepy eyes", was the name of an Indian chief, whose tribes many years ago camped on the shores of beautiful Sleepy Eye Lake. Never an unkind act toward the whites was recorded against Sleepy Eye, and many times he saved the lives of white people and rendered assistance to them in their sickness and trouble
