CONSIDER The
HORSE; HE is
BEING LAID BY
Strangers Would Seek Long for
Blacksmlths, Saddlers and Buggy
Shops in Rock Island.

Traffic in horses and the things
that go with them has altered. to
an unbelievable extent since the
starting Of this century. both as to
volume and the class dealt in.
Want that proved? Well, as to the
figures:
Today when a farmer speeds to
town in his imp automobile to
purchase a collar for Dobbin, the
old buggy horse that Ma prefers
to modern styles Of locomotion-if
he comes to Rock Island-there is
exactly one place where he is sure
to be able to get it The only bona
fide saddlery and harness store In
the city is Joseph Schroeder's, at
1925 Second avenue.
One-Thlrd as Many Shops.
In 1905 there were IL blacksmith
shops in the city, keeping busy a
force of from two to five men each.
shoeing horses. Since a year ago,
when Phil Weber went out of bus
mess, there have been five shops
engaged in the business of horse
shoeing and wagon repairing. Four
Of these are regular horseshoeing
establishments. Three of them are
one-man shops, while the other is
operated by two men.
"All things considered" one Of
the master horseshoers said to a
reporter yesterday. the trade is
just as good for those that are IN
1t now as 1t was years ago when
gas buggies were miracles. There
aren't half as many shops, nor half
as many men in the business.
There are half as many horses, SO
that things keep going just the
same. We who remain still have
enough to keep us busy.
Few Learning Trade.
"In the old days." he went on
to. say. there were lots of jour
neymen bIucksmiths filling the
roads OF the country in going from
town to town for short stays. They
were the next promotion above the
apprentices, who were constantly
going in for study. Apprentices
are very scarce now, and it's an
event when one starts to learn the
trade. Journeymen have practic-
ally disappeared. The youngsters
give one look at the hard work in
blacksmithing; they think about
the four years of apprenticeship
and the long years of playing sec
ond fiddle on top of that-theY
look 1t over and then turn up their
noses. They figure they can pick
up Job any day getting good
money from the start, without hav-
ing to learn much while pulling
down apprentices lew wages. This
business has to stick right with
the horses-what affects the horses
affects US, one way or the other.
OF course, the auto has practically
knocked out the light buggy horse
