Dick,
	Short line is the opposite of full line.  Full line would be a tractor 
manufacturer such as John Deere that has a full line of machinery and 
attachments and that is what the dealer handles primarily.  Short line 
dealers usually have everything except new tractors on their lot and 
none of it "major" brand like Deere, IH, etc.  They typically deal in 
tillage equipment, hay handling equipment, grain handling equipment, and 
such.  Many different brands.
	Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but that is my take on the short 
line moniker.
