THE SPIRIT OF DEMOCRACY,
Tnessiay, May FL. 1872.
ShOCsRg Horses.
lFrom Tmf, Field and Farm

From Ttuf, Field and Farm
Most horse shocrs and their apprcn.
tees assume to he more familiar with
the anatomy Of the feet Of horses than
any other person, because, as they fre.
quently aver, it is my business 10 han
die such feet more than any one else;
hence, 'blacksmithS usually feel that no
one has any right to dictate how a horse
should or should not be shod.
If . person will study the anatomy
of the foot of young horse that has
never been shod, he will readily per-
ceive that more skill is required to fit
shoe correctly than simply to nail
shoe TO 4 block of wood Every black
smith should procure a foot of some
horse which has not worn shoe for 4
long period, So that he may readily per-
ceiye and elderstand how to fit the shoe
to the insensible shell Of the hoof The
wear and tear, incident to travelling falls
almost entirely on the sharp rim of the
hard shell Of the hoof when the foot is
not shod When horse is to be shod,
the. shoes should be fitted to the feet,
rather than the feet to the shoes; the
weight of the animal should rest on the
hard shell Of ho0f, and not on the soft
sole of the inside of the she'll besides
this, the frog, which answers the same
purpose beneath the foot as the large
rolls of India rubber under the railroad
cars, should never be pared away; the
frog will wear away as fast as any por-
ton. of it will need to be removed ;
heuce every proprietor of a horse
should charge the horse shoer not to
remove any part oe the frog.
A great many country smiths who do
not understand what Office the frog per-
forms, will cut away large portion of
itevery time shoe is fitted to the foot
another should never be allowed, which
is applying hot shoe to the hoof to
burn it down level, rather than have it
a-Aot shoe injures the elasticity and te.
nacity of the hoof; hence blacksmith
should never be allowed to fit the shoe
fg. burning the hoofs; it is rule with
many shoers to make only four mai
holes, on each side of the shoe, whether
alarge or a small one; hence, if tht
shoe is designed for large foot, there
will be no nails back of point halfway
between the toe calks; whereas, there
are. six nails on each side of the hoof
As the proprietor is obliged to pay th'
bill for shoeing, he should assume al
undoubted right to direct how his horst
should be shod
During the winter, if horses are liable
to cut each other, or to wound thei
own feet with sharp calks. let the smitl
be directed to make long and SQUARE
csfks which will prevent slipping, anC
will not wound the flesh so readily as
sharp calk; the toes should be made o
steel. and be tempered so hard that
file. will not take hold of them. Nos
blacksrniths profess to use steel 70
calks, when, in truth, they use a piec,
OF soft iron which viii wear Off almos
as soon as a lead calk; if the calks ar
made of steel and tempered as hard a
good cold chisel, the calks will con
tiHue seryiceable three times longer thai
when they are made of pieces of Oh
horse shoes or other iron
