Question 2 - and not as yucky looking -
What is this called and what is it used for?
Looks like one of these:
(a seed drill)
Almost. It's a Fiddle Drill. It's hand held, with seed in the bag, and it's played like a fiddle (moving the "bow" back and forth). Ours is probablly over 100 years old, and we still use it on the odd bare patch. Never throw anything away!

Funny thing about farmers, as Goldie says, they never throw anything away - just dump it in a corner somehwere thinking it might come in useful sometime. have walked through a few farm yards in east kent recently and it is amazing the amount of junk that is piled high. Fridges, freezers, roof tiles, timber, hardcore, bricks, ridge tiles, baling twine, fencing wire, rotting lorry bodies, ancient tractor parts, hearvester bits & pieces etc.
