The Western Trail Trading Post is a fascinating place to see memorabilia from the past. This piece of equipment is not for sale, but sits under a tree by the parking area, as part of their nostalgic paraphernalia.
It appears to be a seeder with a one-row plow blade. An operator sat on a seat, the top of which is currently missing. A rusty two-gallon bucket for seed is still attached. This seeder was most likely horse-drawn.
