text: The perforations in the toepiece are designed to receive nails similar to those driven in the side sections and into the hoof for securing the shoe thereto, and it will be seen that the lower-plate is provided with projecting lugs, and that the upper plate has slots, and when the lower plate is in position the lugs are up into the slots and serve to keep the two plates in proper position and prevent lateral strain on the raised bearings to which the side sections of the shoe are pivoted, and a shoe constructed as herein described is durable, cheap to manufacture, as well as being easy to the foot of a horse, as it permits the hoof to have its natural growth, and the toe-plate on the under side of the intermediate section, that receives the most wear, can be readily and quickly repaired or replaced by another similar plate without the person removing the shoe from the foot of the animal, thus providing a horseshoe which can be easily applied to the hoof and quickly repaired when worn.
