This old piece of agricultural machinery is located near the parking lot of the Stratford Perth Museum in Stratford, Ontario. This machine was likely made between 1888 to 1908 when the Good Roads Machinery company expanded into Canada. Made in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the machine would likely have been pulled horses to flatten farm roads for cars. The wheel at the top seems to control the angle the grader points at.
