BBOuGHHED HORSE SHOE, as shown per Letters
Patent n o. 1853, granted 4th of July, 1865
The advantage which this invention commands
consists in the cheapness at which horse can be
roughed or unroughed without taking off the Shoe,
which in winter has to be so frequently DONE to the
great injury of the horses foot for its Simplicity
vents arrangement. Any one can rough or smooth
shoe horse in a few minutes.
1t docs not add weight to the shoe, and gives GER
tain safety to the horse. set of rough plates will
wear in winter at least month without injury to
the shoe, and the roughing plate when worn out can
be replaced at very triing expense saving thereby
the cost of shoes and expense of removal
Most satisfactory trials have been made with this
shoe, will appear from the accompanying certif-
Gates at foot, and no doubt need be entertained
of its general adoption, and that very remunera-
tive business will be made in this legitimate branch
of trade. would beg all interested in such matters

heaviest draught horses, remaining on for twelve
dayshe horse being in use on the streets nearly all
the time. can. with the greatest confidence say,
that consider it most valuable invention answer
ing well in all respects the object for which it is
designed. | find it fully adapted to the purpose of
roughng" horses, possessing the great merit of OBJ
waiting the necessity of removing the Shoes in order
to rough the horses thereby avoiding the great injury
to the feet which results from the frequent removal
shoes required in the ordinary mode of roughing.
subjected the Shoes to trial of heat and ham
mering without any arrangement of the plate or
grooves. find Incapable of being shaped and fitted
to the horses feet with much facility any other
Shoe.
| am fully of opinion that the Shoe is decidedly
calculated to preserve the horse from slipping and
that its would prove a great benefit saving the
horse from sources of injury to which he is sub
ject, and consequently source of great economy in
the preservation of the horses.
Very respectfully,
