Leave the Center of the Foot
Prominent Enough To Bear Its
Share of Weight.

Prominent Enough to Bear Its
Share of Weight.
A writer who has gwen the subject of
horseshoeing considerable study says
that whatever kind of shoe is used, or
whatever kind Of work the horse is
wanted to DO. the one unyaryihg rule
should be TO let the center of the foot
alone, and to leave it prominent enough
to take its full share of the weight of
the horse. The toe may he shortened
as much as it conveniently can be. but
let nothing be taken from the heel.
If tho frog can be kept prom
incnt enough without doing so.
Where tips are used il need never he
touched; where long shoes are used any
unequal projections must be filed off
that Interfere with the perfect bedding
of the shoe. Rasp the bottom of the
outside of the hO0f until you procure Il
level, fiat surface. as wide as the shoe
or tip to be nailed on to it and exactly
fitting il, and don't Interfere with any
other part of the foot. RaSp no more of
the sole away than may be necessary TO
bed your narrow tip, or shoe, and don't
leave the soft sole any lower than the
hard crust, but let them both take a
level bearing on the straight level top
of the shoe or tip.

USE THE RIVERS.
Thousands of Miles OF Water
Power Going to Waste.

rover Gong to Waste.
San Francisco Call.
The uses of rivers are only lust be-
coming understood. The Missouri river
Is nearly 5000 miles long, and dis
charges 10000 cubic feet Of water per
second; but it is nearly useless. Yes
sells Go not navigate its waters except
for few hundred miles; lands derive
no fertility from It's waters: its
function appears to be to drown
out cultivated land every spring.
The Shoshone or Snake river is l 900
miles long; it flows through Wyoming,
Idaho, Oregon and part of Washington;
the country which it traverses is
largely barren for want of water. The
ShoShone carries SO much water That in
one place it has hewed out for itself a
channel LOCO feet deep; but the idea of
taking water from the places where it
brawls idly on its way to the Columbia
to the plains. which need it for agricul-
ture, occurs to few
The Colorado river Is also 1000 miles
long; its volume may be inferred from
the fact that it has cleaned its way
through a stratiiied mass of rock from
5000 to 1000 feet thick; but il is utterly
useless, and if, by convulsion of ma
ture, the Green and Grand rivers. which
unite TO form it, were to be suddenly
dried up it would hardly be missed.
Yet the lower Colorado flows through a
desert, which might be made q garden
with water.
