Stillwater Milling Company - Mills and Gins on Waymarking.com

The ancestor of Stillwater Milling Company was Thomas and Plummer Perfection Mills, established in 1891 to make wheat flour and cornmeal for home baking. In 1906, Stillwater Mill and Elevator Company was incorporated by the Babcock family to produce flour under the name “Stillwater’s Best Flour.” In 1918, Andy Goodholm purchased the company and added a line of home flour products called “Good Home Flour.” The mill did well and was expanded to produce livestock feeds. Stillwater Milling Company’s feed is branded as A&M Feeds; named after Andy, and his wife, Mandy, Goodholm.

Home baking began to decline in the 1950’s, so in 1957 flour production was discontinued. The mill concentrated on multiple lines of animal feeds, especially cattle cubes. Grain purchasing and handling, were also a focus, expanding its operations all over Oklahoma and into the adjoining states.

The first Agri-center was opened in 1975. These stores are large complexes that offer not only A&M feeds in bags or bulk, but also items like byproduct blends, fertilizer (as well as fertilizer spreading), fencing materials, troughs, livestock equipment, animal health, and gardening seed/supplies, just to name a few. In addition, all our Agri-Centers carry items for the home such as clothing and boots.
