Yellow is the color of ripened grains, while green is for southern Wisconsin's prairies and pastures. Blue represents the Rock River. In the center is a flaming wheel for industry. The blue in the white of the device is the dammed mill pond, around which lots of the city's industry developed. The flaming wheel is made to represent a turbine, spoke, flange, and vane.
