DANIELSON AND PUTNAM NEWS

livery stable on Furnace street will be closed, the remaining two horses kept there having been disposed of and the livery business discontinued
 In the passing of this business one may note the ascendency of the auto mobile over the horse as means Of transportation on pleasure and short business trips. A quarter of century ago the Kennedy stable included ap- proximately 30 fine livery horses and a decade prior to that William s. Brown, who hnilt the stable. had about as many horses engaged in similar work These horses were kept busy all of the time and many were the periods when they were ovef-tired from serving the many calls made upon them. In those days the man that wanted rig for Sunday had to get his order in not la ter than nid-week, and even then he was not always certain that there would be a horse available for him. But times have changed. WEfhfn the past decade the multiplication of pub lie service cars in this territory has greatly reduced the demand for the ser. vice of livery horses and the develop ment of state roads and year around automobiling has finally entirely driven ! them out of competition. There is not a livery stable proper in Danielson now, where there were several large ones a score of years ago.
 Only sales stables rezzl4in here and these must now be depended upon for horse hire should one desire the ser- vices of a rig for some purpose not suited to the use of an automobile. Suspension of the Kennedy livery sta ble in no way effects the other business enterprises carried on at the property Onl ythe stable has been discontinued.
