A shoe should never be removed withou . first cutting off the clinches, because by simply turning back the clinch m drawing the nail a pieco pf the clinch is often left m the foot, endangering the horse when the new shoe comes to be driven on. 2 The frog and bars require no cutting m a ragu arty attended foot. And m a healthy foot where tfcere are no symptoms of navlcular disorder, the sole should not be cut. 3. The shoe should have a level bearing upon the wall of the faot, and should not be sprung at the heel, as is too common, thereby acting as a fearful lever upon the tendons The naila should be driven level and uni form, and only m the toe side of the inside quarter, the toot being thinner upon the inside and the greate' weight of the body being sustained there.
