In a well ordered shoeing forge-the I 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 in drawing the nail a piece of the clinch is often left in the foot, endangering the horse When the new shoe comes to be driven on. ; 2 The frog and bars require no cutting in a regu arly attended foot. And in a healthy foot where there are no symptoms of navicular disorder, the sole should not be cut. } 8, The shoe should have a level heaping Upon the wall of bhe foot, and should no|; be sprung at the heel, as ia 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 greater weight <?f, the body being suataired there. ■ There is no comparison points of quality between the hand-made and the-riiachine made shoe.
