Cletrac (Cleveland Tractor Company)Tractor at Traver Ranch in Carrizo Plain National Monument. From what I could gather from various websites, this is a crawler tractor made in the late 1930's or early 1940's.

Seed spreader. Comparing this to modern farm equipment, it looks awfully heavy to pull and like it would have been difficult to control.

Tool cart from the 1920's at Traver Ranch in Carrizo Plain National Monument. Based on appearance, I assume that 'tool cart' doesn't mean what we think of today, as in hand tools. Considering its width, this would appear to have pulled tools that were used in cultivating or harvesting along multiple rows.
