Dear Friends,
I was hoping to get some help on identification. I pulled these out of the woods of our family farm. My FFA students want to restore them. Looking for the maker and all so I can track down the age and colors to repaint and decal them. The spiked implement is said to be for weeding peanuts. My father in law is an old tobacco farmer (97) and said it had been on the farm since he was a boy. Thanks in advance.

We had one, pulled it behind mounted cultivator to get little weed seedlings in small corn, beans. Ours was rusty, but I'm thinking red in color.
 
That's awesome. My father in law is truly the salt of the earth. Grew up sharecropping with his uncle who adopted him when his parents died. Been on the same piece of dirt for 97 years. When Occidental opened a mine, all the young men went to work out there and farmed at night. Hard working bunch!
 
As has been mentioned, it worked good as a weeder on small crops but a lot of them around home were converted to attach to the back of a disk harrow to float and leave it finished right ahead of planting. Of course this is before the days of a field cultivator.
 
My Granddad had a weeder like that mounted on the back of his C Allis Chalmers. I think the tag said it was a Ferguson.
 
Might help students , this weeder special attachment goes the rear frame to a McCormick Deering c244 cotton and corn cultivators for a Farmall C tractor
