hey farmgal, looks like youve got a 40s 50s dump, the pix posted above the hi lex bottle are 40s, the hi lex is a very cool bottle never seen that one, the mark on the bottom of the bottle is the owens illinois glass co. mark, the number to the right is the date 58, care to post a group shot of the hi lex bottles mike

The O with the I in the center of it is the glass mark for the Owens Illinois Glass Company . I believe the bottle is from middle to late fifties .

I'm honestly not sure how old the house is. To be honest it is not even a house but two old grain bins put together. This land has been farmed for ages and ages tho. I know the son of the owner said his grand parents also had a house here closer to the old barn that's crumbling. Thanks for the reply.

I saved all the links you gave me and read thru a few. I've been doing research for a few years online. I know digger has many books and tons of questions online. I'm a slow reader tho..sigh. I really do appreciate all your hard word for me. And i figured you passed on the links so I had to learn myself..hehe!!

More pics... I only have a clue about the green bottle. I saw it at an antique place and was told it was a medicine bottle. Not sure if that's correct. I'm more interested in the 3rd clear one. It is only a bit longer then my middle finger and only about as wide. The opening tho is not even big enough for a pinky finger to get in. Please note most of the pics I've posted so far are basically from the surface. We have not even dug down very far yet. And we own 12 acres. Oh the joy to come! I do have a major question tho..if these bottles aren't very old should they be kept or just put in a recycle box? Please don't have a stroke over my question. I have very limited space here.....
