Spurred on by the railroad, the village grew to include a grain elevator, grist mill, stone quarry, sand pit, hotel, three churches, two schools, and several small factories and stores.[10] It is primarily an agricultural community. The grain elevator and quarry are still operating, along with several small businesses and restaurants.
