This interesting piece of farm equipment looks to be a cultivator or plow although the blades are missing. This non-motorized apparatus has a seat for the farmer and bars to hook up to a horse or oxen and probably dates back to the turn of the century. It sits in front of the general store at Granite, part of the farm machinery display. Granite hosts their annual Threshing Bee the third weekend in July.
