Established in 1891 it has kept apace with tho city and surrounding country, and each year draws business from a little further away from Salem, on ac count of his growing reputation for hand-made harness. Somo years ago Mr. Shafer began tho manufacture of harness in tho rear end of the store, added machines as needed, and he has now placed an order for a new harness wax thread sewing machine, which will be installed shortly after tho first ofv the year, and which has been made necessary by the demand for more hand-made harness. When this mach'ne Is installed an addi tional force will be employed. During 1909 Mr. Shafer's business showed an increase of 25 per cent over tho previous year, and practical ly over set of harness or saddle sent out of tho shop was made by his own force, under his personal super vision, for every harness mado Is in spected by Mr. Shafer In person, and must be perfect, or It does not go.
