It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society.
It is the time of year when farmers are out plowing and planting, so we offer a view of plowing 1900 style. The first farmer is riding a plow attachment behind a three-horse hitch, a marked improvement over the second farmer walking behind a two-horse hitch pulling an old-fashioned plow. The photo was taken by Henry Scholl around 1900 and is one of over 400 glass plate negatives in the society’s collections that depicts life in the Whitewater area at the turn of the 20th century.
Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society.
