W. T. Kingston, ■WILLS. STBEET, NEXT COOKSON'S STABLES, ASHBURTON, HAS had three years' experience with Thomas Talbot, M.R.C.V.S., of Scotland Yard two years with Oorneliu, Saunderson, M.R.C.V.S., Clapham Com mon, and ten years with George Balls M.R.C.V.S., Brixton, all of London ' and has also gained a good reputation m the Colony. Our specialty is well-known to be our ability and knowledge of the horse's foot. In a well ordered .shoeing forge the following standard rules will always be bserv ed :— 1. A shoe should never be removed without 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 simptons of navicular disorder, ti[e sole should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a levol bearing upon the wall of the foot, and should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as a fearful lever upon the tendons The nails should be driven level and uni form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the inside and the create * weight of the body being siutaifedTthere. There is no compariso - points of qnalit between the hand made and the machine made shoe. The machine-made shoe is of a coarser material, softer, and is mperted and it should be insisted upon that they be not used m fcfce colony]
