American board representing a number

The different trades have different
sections. The dealers in sugar occupy
one quarter; the silversmiths, the candy
manufacturers, the blacksmiths, the
carpent ers-each class has it's cluster
of shops. The Arabian horse being
the pride Of the Bedouin, we were not
surprised to find much attention paid
to the manufacture of saddles, saddle
bags, brides and trappings, only they
and cotton rather than Of leather.
Bright colors, tassels. fringes, shells
and ostrich feathers are employed in
the ornamentation Of the horse, the
donkey and the camel.
