INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER TITAN 10-20

IH produced the Titan for the Deering man. The engine was started on gasoline and once warm was switched over to kerosene. Water injection was used to prevent pre-ignition.

FORDSON MODEL F

The Henry Ford and Son Company, which was wholly owned by Henry Ford, built the Fordson tractor. It would not merge with the Ford Motor Company until all non-family stockholders of that firm had been bought out in 1919.

The Fordson changed the configuration of tractors and began a price war. With over 750,000 sold in the U.S. from 1917 to 1928 it was the Fordson more than any other tractor that introduced farmers to power equipment. It is even credited with having saved the people of Great Britain from food shortages in both world wars. 

GAAR-SCOTT STEAM TRACTION ENGINE

 

In 1842, Abraham Gaar started building stationary steam engines and threshing machines in Richmond, Indiana. In 1870, William Scott joined the company to create Gaar-Scott. Gaar-Scott would eventually be bought by Rumley which then became the Advance-Rumley Company, which in turn became part of Allis-Chalmers.
