The smoke out the breather tube is caused by compression leaking by the rings.
Some smoke is normal especially on cold start up. If it smokes heavily, as in puffing smoke and oil mist, that is an indication the rings are either worn or stuck.
If the tractor has been sitting a long time they may be stuck and will loosen up with running. Might try some Marvel oil or transmission fluid in the cylinders, let it sit a couple days, see if they will loosen up.
If they're worn, either live with it as long as you can keep the oil in, or get ready for a rebuild.
One thing to check is be sure the oil is not overfull, is the correct viscosity, and not contaminated with fuel.
