Went to Portersville Pa steam show saw a very interesting IH tractor, looked smaller than the original Cub, I would call it a compact tractor.
It had on the side of the hood a sign that read Plant Motor. owner wasn't there to give any other information I never knew they made one so small.

This young Lady was probably in her early 70's may have weighed 120 # wet, and she could handle this behemoth with out a problem. saw her hook up to the thrashing machine, then later to the stationary baler.
