The Bath Times says that a gentleman in
that city has a horse which he has owned nine
years and never had a shoe on his foot. He
thinks the advantages are viz: that in damp
snow the horses hoof will nos ball up aud he
is sure OF his footing. %, that the horse never
balks himself in deep SHOWS, never wears out
floors by stamping, and is never lame from
having shoes that pinch his feet. He says that
1t usually costs $40 q year TO shoe family
horse like his, SO that In a financial point OF
view he saves $40 year. The horse was sean
this morning and was in good order; the hoofs
were tough and sharp and smooth. He says
that although having been in use nine years,
he never met with an accident, not even as
much as a stumble.
