The Linn Tractor

You have all heard of it weighing only four tons
and drawing four times its own weight, having a
carrying capacity of 5 tons on its own body.

It vi11 work on all kinds of ground because
it is of the self-laying track or caterpillar type and
has flexible lag bed of our own design and patent.
It fits in the hollow places and bends over the
knolls and obstacles in the roads and across the lots;
in fact, it will run anywhere that a man can walk
and draw a good load behind.

This machine is an all-year-round machine.
It works as well on the snow as on the dirt. Our
sled in front taking the place of the wheels makes
it a machine that can be used in the deep snow.
This tractor can be seen at our plant, Morris,
N. Y., at any time, where demonstrations are given
daily to interested parties. Prices on application.
