The correct answer is, B) bought from the store.

Family farmers got things that they needed such as cloth in the mid-1800s by buying it from the store.

In those years, people did not have enough money to have clothes for each day of the week and keep a collection in the wardrobe. Just had what they needed to use for work and something different for church on Sundays or special events. Yes, they bought it from the store as well as the things they needed. But they were frugal. The times demanded to be cautious with the money spent on things. Just the necessary.
