Its slogan, "The Bull with the Pull," puts the emphasis on raw pulling power rather than speed, the quality that mattered most to farmers working heavy plows and threshers. The ad's mention of kerosene or gasoline fuel points to a period when kerosene was a cheaper alternative to gasoline, and many early tractors were built to run on both. Advertisements like this one, from the 1910s and 1920s, were aimed at a farm market still deciding whether a motor could replace horses and mules.
