Welcome to The Progress Museum
The 1900 Kitchen |
Life is starting to change. Our houses have gotten bigger and the kitchen is now the focal point in the house. As you look around, what changes do you see? The lighting is now coal oil lamps, the iron stove has replaced the hearth. A dry sink has been but in with a pitcher pump so you do not have to run to the well or creek as often. The lady of the house is now "queen of the kitchen" and is starting to have some of the finer things. Your lifestyle is changing from Farming and Livestocking to more specialized artisan type activities.

Those two questions in 1850, making and fixing are now down to one question, "Where can I buy it!"
