This is a antique reel mower with a tiller attachment. On eBay they are ranging from $25 to $95.

The front part of the machine will cut down the weeds in the garden or in the field and the back part is used for turning the ground so that you can now plant in the field. It is a weeder and scraper or earth turner. They use to use this to clean the field and turn the dirt so they can plant in the fields.

This is a hand-pushed cultivator, tiller, weeder. The front part helps dig into the soil and the tines on the back break up the soil further. Then if you flip the whole thing over, the longest blade cuts off weeds below the soil surface.

Lehman's, for one, still makes this type of garden tool. You can see a modern one in use if you search on You tube for: Using a Garden Cultivator...it is by Mother Earth News.
