The building that housed this business was originally erected in 1869, and in 1872 came into the hands of Jacob {{Surname|Frick}} and J.S.R. {{Surname|Overholt}}, at which time the building was materially enlarged and the facilities largely increased. In 1884 the mill was entirely reconstructed to a complete roller mill, and in every department the beast know appliances, with ample steam power for operating the machinery, was introduced. The building is 120 X 40 feet in dimensions, and four stories in height, and has now a capacity of 300 barrels of choice flour per day. The principal brands produced are known as the "Amber" and "Gold Thread" which are sold in all sections. Both merchant work and exchange is transacted.
