Tractor Supply carries it. 90W for transmissions is the GL1 oil I'd use (if I wanted mineral oil). Non-detergent 30W motor oil for the hydraulics. I have to use pure mineral oil in the transmissions of my Oliver and Case crawlers because the wet brakes can't handle EP additives in GL5 oil. I doubt you need GL1 "mineral oil" in a B250 though. Only reason to feat it is if your system has a lot of yellow metal (brass, copper, or bronze) or wet-brakes. My B275s (got three of them) have had 90W GL5 in the transmissions for years and generic hydraulic oil in the hydraulic reservoir. Ford N series tractors also called for pure mineral oil in the transmissions. That's why Tractor Supply puts "Ford" on the label. I would not use 90W in the hydraulics though unless you live in a hot area. 90W mineral oil is actually 40W when rated for engine use. By engine ratings - 20W or 30W is much better for hydraulics. Any 20W or 30W non-detergent motor oil is fine. So is just about any oil sold as "hydraulic oil."
