I found it intesting that the McCormick-Deering Model 30
tractor was considered a compact.

Wisconsin Historical society has over 200 posters ads
of IHC, McCormick-Deering Farmall Tractors.

Well,.....compared to an ADVANCE RUMLEY, or a HART PARR, the tractor was indeed....somewhat compact; and you didn't have to follow it around with a team and tank wagon of water and a wagon load of wood.
