New York is one of the last large American
cities to have some of its policemen on horse-
back．The New York police have 1 70 horses that
they use in certain parts of the city． ,
The horses are expensive to feed,but it is e-
ven more expensive to take care of them．Be—
cause the horses must walk on the streets,they
need special horseshoes．I n fact,they need more
than 8．000 of them each year.Every police horse
in New York gets new shoes every month．Keep—
ing these shoes in good repair is the job of six
blacksmiths．There are only about thirty—five of
these blacksmiths in the whole United States．
The cost of shoeing a h．orse is between twen—
ty dollars and thirty—five dollars,and it takes a
skilled blacksmith two to three hours to do the
job．
A blacksmith’s job is not an easy one．He
’must be able to shape a shoe from a piece of plain
metal and then fit it to the horse’s hoof．The
blacksmith must be．nd over all the{ime he is fitting
the shoe and m ust hold the weight of the horse’s
leg while he works．Clearly,a blacksmith must be
very strong．But even more important,he must be
able to deal with hOrses—fOr before the black-
smith can begin his work,he has to get the horse
tO I．ft its leg．
One of the blacksmiths in New York is Jame．s
Corbin．who came to this country from I reland in
1 948．He not only shoe horses for the police,he
also works for a race track and for a group of
horse owners who l ive nea r the city．Corbi n be.
came interested in blacksmithing because his fa.
ther did it,and,as he puts it,“It’s a good way to
make a living．’’

纽约是一个现在仍然有着骑警的大城市.警方的170只马只能用在纽约的固定地方,喂养马是昂贵的事情,但照顾马比喂马更花钱.因为马必须在街上行走,它们需要特别的鞋.实际上,一年需要8000只鞋以上.每只马每个月都可以换一次新鞋.有6个铁匠是维修鞋的.整个美国大约有35个铁匠.每只马的使费在20-35美元,铁匠需要2-3小时才能完成这项工作.
铁匠的工作不容易做.他必须用一块平板铁根据马蹄的形状做出合适的鞋.铁匠必须不停地举起马脚在他测量马蹄的大小时.很明显,铁匠是肯定强壮的.但是更重要的是,他必须能够处理--就是在他做测量时,他要马自己提起脚.
JAME是纽约的一个铁匠 ,他1948年到这个国家定居.他不仅为警方做马鞋,还为那些住在城市附近的赛马爱好者做跑道.JAME是因为他的父亲才爱上铁匠这个工作,正如他说,这是赚取生计的好途径.人工翻译的
