Pictures by: JIm MIller 08/2004 - The main mill building of Mitchell-Maskrey Mill is a 40'X 50' brick 3 story structure built on a limestone foundation. The building is in good condition and is still in use as a feed mill dealing in Kent Feeds and Northrup King Seeds. Many of the old mills and most of the newer mills in the Midwest specialize in Kent Feeds.
