In the James J. Hill's North Oaks Farm Dairy Building, railroad magnate James J. Hill installed a DeLaval separator and barrel churns, which automated the production of butter, using centrifugal force powered by a steam engine. The building is a Registered Historic Place located in North Oaks, Minnesota. The operation was a forerunner of the modern commercial butter-making industry.cite book|title=The National Register of Historic Places in Minnesota|last=Nord|first=Mary Ann|publisher=Minnesota Historical Society|date=2003|isbn=0-87351-448-3]
