How much does a dollar buy in Vermont in 1910? From a kid's perspective, ideally, in a rural community. Perhaps the amount of candy in a general store. The number of chickens or goats? Anything else the kid (10 years old) might know. Thank you! | |

Hi Stacey, I don't know about candy or chickens or goats, but this site will give you a few ways to compare what a dollar in 1910 would be worth in dollars today, well in 2003: namely $19.30. Or on another site there: $ 1 in 1913 would be worth as $ 19.66 in 2005. http://www.ex.ac.uk/~RDavies/arian/current/howmuch.html Click on SOURCES in the text and then scroll down till you find USA |

Stacey -- There is a book called "The Value of a Dollar, 1860-1999" edited by Scott Derby and published by Grey Horse Publishing is an interesting summary of prices quoted in various publications. Pafalafa's given you some great information but you many public libraries have the book and you might find it worthwhile to check your library too.
