How many horses, valuable horses in many respects, are spoiled by having aciccuve iore-ieet. ine general de feet in the fore-feet is called "pinched," This makes the or contracted feet. animal tr-nrW fnrwnr f n foil when going down hill, and conseqently Unsale. men the forward feet of the horse nro tlrftiro K cofnlnosa on trio road is very much impaired; and in fnrt th'prfl i t,a rnmfnrt nr M.fp.tv in usin such a horse. . . IVhat causes tender feet? The most common, cause is baa snoemg, .witn w w . imTirn'nr'r-care oi the animal. There nre'few eood horse-shoersr. Not one blacksmith in fifty knows how to shoe - ' . a horse nronerly. llow freauentlv do - ' . boys and annrentices. as soon as thev -1 .!.. i' . . " can arive a nan, unaertaKe to setsnoes without any knowledge of the anatomy oi-mo xiorse loot, or anv oi mat or inborn philosophy which teaches a man to look at the reason of a thing. It is a shame and an outrage upon the rights of horses to have such a state of things. It is also a lamentable fact, that not one man in a hundred knows when his horse i3 well shod. Commonly, a man leads his horse to the blacksmith shop, lets the work be done, and then goes off with his horse satisfied, because he has shoes on his feet. There are two very common faults ! in shoeing horses. One is, the shoes are too short. , How can a horse travel with ease, unless his shoes are long enough for him to set his wnoie leex down on the shoes.. A horse : suffers as much with short shoes as a. man does with boots of an insufficient length. How can ahorse travel easily all day over our rough roads, with shoes halt an inch too short? : I do no', know how many times "I ;have been! pained at seeing horses" with short shoes on. Have the shoes as long as the -foot. The longer it is,J reasonably, the better support it will give. . ' -' x..'-, The second fault -is, shoes are made i i ; in... concave, instead or convex. - uucu horse sets down his foot, if it can, it will spread a little. This arrangement was made, to save the animal from pounding a solid foot on the ground. The foot of ahorse has layers of springs, as it were, in it; and the shoe should be made accordingly. If the heel of the shoe dishes in, how can the horse s heel spread when he puts his foot down: It can not; but it is bound tighter, so that it cramp3 the foot, . and after a while it results in pinched feet. A forward foot shoe should be made with the heel of it slightly convex, just enough convex to let the heel spread naturally when the horse puts his foot down. Maine Farmer.
