C. & G-. Cooper & Co.’s Traction 
OR 
SELF-PROPELLING FARM ENGINES 
By a simple but effective attachment made to our common 
farm engines, we are able to offer a Traction or Self-Propel¬ 
ling Farm Engine, which not only propels itself, but hauls 
a water tank and separator over any road, up hill or down, 
witli ilie aid of one pair of horses. 
This engine is a complete success, having been thoroughly 
tested for two seasons. Nearly one hundred of them have 
been 6 old the last year, and all are giving the best satisfac¬ 
tion. They cost lntt little more than the common farm en¬ 
gine, and enable the thresherntan to operate with from two 
to four less teams, and to move much faster than with horses.
