You can usually purchase a tractor with a loader for less cost than buying them seperately. Most loader tractors already have fluid ballast in the rear tires and/or extra wheel weights. Often loader tractors can be purchased with tire chains and a heat houser if you ask.
An H and a C are close to the same horsepower, but a bare H would have close to 1000 pounds more weight than a bare C, more gear selections and a longer wheel base, all will help a lot with a loader. An H with a loader should be able to push and lift nearly twice as much as a C with a loader. Similar to comparing a John Deere B to an MT or a J.I. Case SC to a VAC.
Farmall H tractors are useful, plentiful and inexpensive. If you can find a Farmall SH, SM, 300, 350, 400, 450, Oliver 77, 88, or Case 400 for not much more money I would jump at it though. The live hydraulics and faster gears will be more useful.
A loader makes a tractor longer, clumsier and steer harder, especially with a wide snow bucket. If you don't want to have two tractors, consider getting a loader that is easy to remove and install so you can easily drop the loader when you don't want it. A Deere #45 loader is one that is easy to remove, others loaders may be similar.
