The Little Genius plows were originally built by Parlin & Orendorff which International Harvester bought out in 1919.
The #5 Little Genius was produced from 1916 to 1929. It was commonly referred to as a chain lift plow as the plow lift mechanism was mounted on the side of a beam and operated by a chain drive from the land wheel.
I have an early model of one of these plows with the front beam having the " P&O " logo stamped on it. I restored it and use it every year at plowing days.
The mould boards and shares are secured to the beams by standard counter sunk head plow bolts.
The square head bolts on your plow must have been used as a temporary fix.
