In a well ordered shoeing tqpge the following standard rules will always be observed:— 1, A shoe should neTer be removed withou I 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 conies to be driven on, 2 The frog and bars require no cutting m a regu arly 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 a fearful lever upon the tendoua The nails should be di-i^n level and unj form, and only on the toe side of the inside quarter, the ioot being thinner upon the inside and the greate * weight of the body being sustained there.
