From the New York Tribune.
If the latest phase Of modern ingenuity
proves a success, there will be no more
heavy trampling. and the rhythmic click
ing of the hoofs of four-footed steeds
There has been invented a new horseshoe
q steel frame about which is built a cushion
of vulcanized rubber. The advantage
claimed for 1t is that as the rubber, in
stead Of metal, strikes the ground, there is
no conclusion or jar, and the horses hoof,
leg and shoulder are saved.
Thirty-three per cent of the diseases of
horses, It has been said, are maladies of
the foot. and there is little question but
that even the best shoeing. as it is done
now by burning the hoof. is in a measure
Injurious This new horseshoe is to be put
on cold, and the hoof simply pared or cut
to fit. 1t is nailed on in the ordinary way
An additional advantage Of the rubber sole
Is that 1t will give the horse q firmer hold
upon wet or treacherous pavements. and,
by securing him good purchase. enable
him to go up or. come down sleeps hills
with heavy load far more easily than at
present.
