What would kids wear on a farm?
Boys would wear bib overalls, boots and shirt. If it could be afforded he would have a pair of wool type trousers, straight legged, boots and probably a shirt kept for dress up on Sundays.

A: Clothes for men in that era were kind of dapper. Suits were slim cut with vests and single breasted jackets. Black kind of pointy shoes with spats over them were on the agenda of the well dressed. Shirts were high collared ofttimes worn with wide ties. Bowler hats were predominant. Ladies fashions were fluffy frilly dresses or tailored suits long skirted with a frilly blouse perhaps.

Working class men would wear slim trousers with braces. cotton shirt and boot
