The name on this record points to the Waterloo Boy, a tractor built in Waterloo, Iowa, by the Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company beginning around 1914. Its two-cylinder engine was designed to run on kerosene, a cheaper fuel than gasoline, which appealed to farmers working on tight budgets. John Deere bought the company in 1918, and the Waterloo Boy's design later shaped the Deere Model D and Model N tractors. Because the record gives no further details, this picture is best read as a view of an early farm tractor at the time when mechanical power was first replacing horses on American farms.
