| Woman with chickens and chicken house. Texas, Circa 1900 +/- 10 years |
Notable in this picture:
* The everyday clothing worn by the lady. I especially like that straw hat. Other examples of women's everyday work hats and clothes can be seen in earlier posts.
On the farm.

* The chicken house. Note that there is no fenced "lot" around this. As in the earlier "chicken" post - these chickens are "free range". This looks like a pretty small chicken house for a lot of chickens. Note that it is built directly on the ground instead of the modern ones I see today, where the enclosed area is usually on a raised platform.
