Advertisement comparing the power of the Yuba Manufacturing Company's Yuba 12-20 tractor to a horse. Part of the caption reads: "A horse big enough to do the work of a Yuba 12-20 Tractor would have to be 108 feet long, 60 feet high, and 15,600 pounds heavy. It would require 360 pounds of hay a day; 144 pounds of barley a day; three or four tenders; and cost $2400, besides $15 or $20 every day whether it worked or not."
