Linn Logging Tractor equipped with 15-ton Semi-trailer for Portaging of Supplies LINN LOGGING TRACTOR In addition to the cutting of his timber, the hauling of his logs, his spring drive and his improve- ments, the portaging of supplies is of prime importance to the logger. Portaging with horses is expensive and slow. The above illustration shows the Linn Logging Tractor with summer steerage wheels attached, prepared for summer portaging work, with a semi-trailer mounted upon its rear bolster. This trailer can be 16 or 18 ft. long and of a width necessary to permit the carrying of large quantit- ies of baled hay, oats, or general camp supplies. The Linn Logging Tractor can of course be equipped with a body on its own frame, which can be 13 ft. long and over 6 ft. wide, but as the carrying capacity of the Linn Logging Tractor is limited to 10 tons on its own body, the use of this semi-trailer enables an additional 5 tons to be carried. Linn Logging Tractors have demonstrated their usefulness to the logger, and in the realm of portaging the Linn Logging Tractor fulfills an equally important part. We will be pleased to discuss the merits of this Linn portaging outfit and we can supply this equipment to users of Linn Logging Tractors who have been using their machines for two or three years.
