Our specialty is well-known to be bur ability and knowledge of the horse's foot. In a well ordered shoeing forge the following standard rules will always be observed: — 1. A shoe should never be removed withou first cutting off the clinches, because by simply turning back the clinch m drawing the nail a piece of the clinch is often left m the foot, endangering the horse when the new shoe comes to be driven on. , , 2. The frog and bars require no cutting m a regularly attended foot. And m a healthy foot where there are no symptoms of - navicular disorder, the sole should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the wall of the foot, aud should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as * fearful lever upon the tendons 4. The nails should be driven level and uni form, and only on the* toe side of the iniride quarter, the toot being thinner upoto the inside and the greater weight of the j body being sustained there. ' , There is no comparison points of quality between the hand^made and the mathine made shoe.
