Corn Kernel Cutters
To the far left is what is called a Miniture Corn Shed which represents where the farmers took their ears of corn to clean and store.
In the center is a special axe used to cut the stocks of the corn during harvest.
On the right is a miniture of a corn cutter. On the far right of the box you can see the wheel (blue) and the handle which turned the blades within the box. The hold at the top is where a person pushed an ear of clean corn and the blade inside would cut off the kernels.
