W. T. Kingston, WILLS BTEEET, NEXT COOKSON'S STABLES, ASHBURTON, HAS had three years' experience with Thomas Talbot, M.R.C.Y.S,, of Scotland Yard two years with Corneliu. Saunderson, M.U.C.V.S., Clapham Com mon, and ten years with George Balls. M.R.C.V.S., Brixton, all of London ' ar>d has also gained a good reputation in 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 observed :— I, 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 nd bars require no cutting in a regu arlj wutended foot. And in 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 I the wall of the foot, and should not be ' sprung at the heel, as is t«o 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 1 quarter, the foot being thinner upon the inside and the grtiate ■ weight pi the bqqy being sustained there. There is no compariso - points of quality 1 between the hand made and the machine made shoe. The m»chine-made shoe is of a coarser material, softer, and is mperted andit should be insisted «pdh that they be, not used in fc>-e colony!
