Kit was really excited about this old tractor in a barn at the Kaufman Museum in Newton KA. We went here because they have recreated a small bit of tallgrass prairie but it's an amazing museum with natural history (lots of stuffed animals) and human history--some on the native Cheyene but mostly on the Mennonite settlers. They were recruited from Germany, Poland, Russia, etc by the railroads. -- and promised religious freedom. Interesting fact is that they brought wheat from Russia that helped create the US midwest bread basket.
