that looks like tumble bug chain to me. A tumble is a manure spreader, around the turn of the century i would bet. Out west it is usually in a little better condition. Don't' let this be the last word tho.

:icon_thumright: If not to a manure spreader some other piece of farm equipment, like a conveyor for the hay bales
