posed to be improvements. Among these
is one called the Park stirrup. The new
troop of Hussars in this city uses it. The
bottom of the stirrup is hung on pivot.
SO thai it can turn down be
hind, and probably throw the foot
out IN case the horseman should
be unseated. The foot rest is very narrow
A new and much more comfortable stirrun
for ladies saddles is metal slipper lined
with satin, but if lady ever fails from a
horse without first extracting her foot
from the stirrup her chance of escape will
be very small
The ideal stirrup should have such a
large foot rest that it would hold the
entire sole of a mans boot, and vet free
the foot instantly if the rider were thrown.
The cowboy stirrup made of bent hoop
OF hickory nearly two feet long and six
inches wide, is probably the best made
but its appearance prohibits its use in
civilized communities. 1t seems to me
that making stirrup in the shape of a
hoop is fatal practice. but no one has vet
offered better shape.
