 With that fancily written name of "Mary Jane" on it ..... I'm guessing that it is a "specialty" kitchen item for dispensing a garnish on a baking pan or on the food that is to be or was already baked. 

Maybe for "sprinkling" an even coating of sugar on cookies or whatever. ;D ;D

I would say its for marking a outline in chalk, like for a tennis court or a baseball field.

OOPS, ... my bad, .... I didn't realize one could still buy one of those "thingy's" at a Sears, Walmart or Dollar General Store. How much do they cost, I need at least 2 of them? ;D ;D ;D

Now it will surely be highly surprising to ya'll .... but pre-1950 there was not very many gigantic bakeries producing tens-of-thousands of Sugar Cookies, etc., etc., 24/7 every day of the year ........ but there were tens-of-thousands of, per say, Mom n' Pop bakeries with one or more operating in most every city and town in the US of A.

And those are pretty much all gone ..... except the ones that "specialize" in donuts.

HA, I remember my mother once handing me a nickel with instructions to go down to the local bakery and get a loaf of "fresh baked" bread, which I did. 

I think it was for making sandwiches to put in Dad's lunch pail ..... because Ma always made a pan of biscuits for pretty much every meal.

It t'wasn't until loaves of "sliced" bread started being delivered to the grocery stores that Mom's biscuit making slowed up.

Cheers
