As far as I know there were lights but they were very limited. So you could do some things but it wasn't like today when work almost doesn't get interrupted at all when it's dark. At least that's what my grandmother told me. During her youth she lived on a farm without electric power and oil lamps were also too expensive to be used much. You also had to be very careful not to burn down your house.
