The advice to allow horses to go barefooted
during work on farms is of paramount impor-
lance 1t will do more good towards curing con-
tracted feet than all other remedies. 1t will
prevent contraction to large extent, especially
if the clefts of the sole are opened as far as
practicable This opening may be pared down
quite close to the quick, and though it might
make the horse little sore lit quite often has
done so in my practice), don't be alarmed; the
horse will soon get over the soreness, and be
benefited by the close pairing The openings
must be cleaned out as soon as the horse leaves
his work. / have cured permanently many
severe cases of contraction by this simple and
quite inexpensive process. Horses should be
allowed time to expand the hoof, and recoup
by going barefooted. | mean all and every kind
of horse no matter how or where worked, if he
can be spared for few days where the work
demands shoes.
In most kinds of work horse can go bare
footed without injury, and with certain benefit.
The edges Of the hoof should be rounded. This
WILL prevent breaking to a certain extent OF the
outer edges of the hoof. OF all faults in a
horses hoof my nightmare is stubby foot

sequent upon wearing down of the heel
