Hello everyone. Been digging bottpe dumps around old homesteads for a littpe while now. These sites should contain some late 1800s early 1900s stuff but it would seem to me that i am in the 1940s-50s? Take a look at these and tell me what you all think.

The way (the word) ball may help you date it. That is the thing you should look up. There are a lot of different kinds, but they often had a decently small time range. The swamp-root is a screw top from what I can tell, and that type is from around the 20s-30s or later, and from what I can tell about the ball jar it is a mainly 20s-30s dump. Keep on looking!

Looks 1930's to early 1940's to me. The Johnson & Johnson gauze jar is a bit earlier but could have been kicking around the house for a while. The canning jar is the same story.
