Old Knifley - comparing the cost of living in 1897 2019-02-03 - Knifley, northern Adair County, KY - Photo from Mitzi Bault, CM staff. This account book from my Great Grandfather's Knifley store dates to 1897. You could buy a pair of bib overalls for 68 cents, six yards of cotton for 57 cents. You could buy a half gallon of oil for five cents - these prices are crazy. Every day he posted in his book what he sold. He kept up with each sale cash and change. This day in 2019 Rick and I made a trip to Louisville to see my Oncologist. Can you believe the difference in making this trip in 1897? --Mitzi Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
