History:	OGILVIE FLOUR MILLS This 32,000 bushel elevator was built by the Ogilvie Flour Mills Co., in 1925. It was built beside an earlier elevator built on this site in 1915 by Randell, Gee and Mitchell, which was used as an annex for the present elevator for a period of time. The balloon annex on the east side was built in 1951. In 1960 the elevator was sold to the Alberta Wheat Pool. In 1968 it was acquired by Wesley Kuehn for private use. The office is unchanged, the walkway is one of two boxed walkways left in the province. The leg has a rope drive run by a four-cylinder Continental gasoline engine under the floor of the office.
