A shoe should never be removed without first cutting off the clinches, because by Bimply 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 cornea 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 slmptons of navicular disorder, tqe sole should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the Avail 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 c,nd tini form, and only pa the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner tipen the - inside and the greate * weight of the body bding siirftairea there.
