In a well ordered Bhoeing forge the 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 froj ■id bars require no cutting in a regu arl> »t tended foot. And in a healthy , foot where there are no symptoms of navicular disorder, the sole should not.be cut. ■ X1 The shoe should'have 1 a level bearing upon the wall of the foot, aud should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby, opting w*learful lever upon the tendons . level,and uni. form, and only, on'the toe aide of the inside quarter, the jtobffc being tljinner upen the inside and the Weate* "weight of the body being suatained there.
