The Adams Woodframe Grain Elevator is a grain elevator in Adams, Oklahoma. The elevator was built in 1926, the same year Adams was established, by the Tex-Co Grain Company. The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad opened a line past the grain elevator in 1929, which linked Amarillo, Texas to Liberal, Kansas. The elevator has mainly held wheat, the primary crop in the area, and operated continuously from its opening to at least 1983. On May 13, 1983, the elevator was added to the National Register of Historic Places.
