Thanks are due to James Dempster for the following information, Lost Landmark: Duluth’s Imperial Mill "In 1889 pioneer Roger Munger partnered with Bradford C. Church and T. A. Olmstead and established Imperial Mills on the east side of Rice’s Point at 600 Garfield Avenue [Duluth]. ... By 1892 Imperial was the largest flour mill in the world, actually producing 6,300 barrels a day. Red River wheat was delivered to the mill on railroad tracks, shoveled into the mill on one side and rolled out as flour in barrels on the other, loaded straight into vessels docked along slip # 1."
