Our specialty is well-known to be our ability and knowledge of the horse's foot. In a well ordeped shoeing forge the following standard rules will always be observed :— 1, A thoo should never be removed withou first c wefcing 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 ifoe new shoe comes-to be dpiven on. 2 Tfo« frog and bars require no cutting m a regu at']y attended foot. And m a h«althy 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, and should not be sprung at the heel, *s is iao common, thereby acting as a fearful hv§V upon the fceudons The nails should be driven level and h*»£ form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the inside and the greater weight of the body being sustained there. There is no comparison points of quality between the hand-made and the maohuie made shoe.
