The Graden Mill building is long gone, but apparenly the some of the "mill" machinery is now at Farmers Supply on Sawmill Road off of Highway 3. The owner, Con, told me also that he remembers working at Graden when he was young. I seem to recall him telling me that the Graden mill also had a discarded loco boiler they used to produce steam for "cooking" some of the grains. Local history lives on if you know what nooks and crannies to examine.
