It's adopted a four-day week to save money and might switch to eight-man football. The town has lost its Ford, Chevy and Chrysler lots, all its implement dealers and lumber yards, its creamery, jewelry store and movie theater. "The big farmers took over, and it's killed small business," says Paul Loberg, who runs a welding shop off Main Street. "All they need...
