M&B Plans Expansion Of Rohrerstown Mill
Miller and Bushong Inc of Rohrerstown announces plans for new feed milling and mixing facilities at its Rohrerstown headquarters. President Chester Graybill says a 97 foot high push button mill will be the area’s most modern plant with gravity flow bins and outlets to current packaging at existing facilities. The firm was founded by Harry C. Miller in 1875, W Scott Bushong joined in 1898, and Graybill joined in 1919 after Muller's retirement amid a 1941 mill fire that led to the present plant.
