The Helix Mill opened in 1918. It was lost to a fire in 1968. The facility had a milling capacity of 400 barrels per day, and the bulk storage capacity of the four concrete tanks was 60,000 bushels. The Helix Flour mill was farmer-owned. The concrete building was used for a gym for a short time when school was held in the current city hall building. The area adjoining the flour mill to the north was flooded for ice skating before the mill was built.
All that remains of the structure are the four circular concrete grain bins and the former PGG grain elevator..
