original source:
radio was a new thrill for many americans in the 1920s, but it had extraordinary value for the isolated farm families of the midwest, for whom solitude loomed as a daily problem. radio was a source of music and fun, information and weather reports, and it was an easy way to enjoy the pleasure of other people's company. in-person visiting was a special event that often meant putting on dress clothes and serving cakes and lemonade and gathering politely in the parlor; frequently the press of chores or bad weather made that impossible. but with a radio, women could continue their housework as they listened to a friendly voice; men working in the barn had access to weather reports and farm programs.
