The Foot of the Horse,
Faults in Shoeing to Be Avoided—Leave the Foot
. Natural and Make the Shoe Fit.
Almost every farmer and almost every
blacksmith seems to think he knows almost
all there is to know about the foot of a
horse. And yet over one half of the horses
we see are afflicted with some kind of foot
lameness. ‘‘Gone wrong in the feet’ is an
every day quotation. When I consider
that I never had a horse go wrong in the
feet in all the years that I have used horses
Iam led to wonder whether there is not
something in the way I care for my horses’
feet and in the way I have them shod.
And yet I never drug or medicate my
horses’ feet, and I am called a crank by
most horseshoers. But I think you will
pardea my conceit if I tell you some of the
notions I entertain in regard to the care of
a horse’s foot, and some of my ideas in re-
gard to shoeing. A man may shoe horses
for years in a country place and yet not
meet many truly good horsemen or many
who understand the anatomy and physiolo-
gy of a horse's foot.
The care of a horse’s foot should begin
when he ie a colt. He should have a clean
dry, level place to stand and to lie down.
Every colt should havea chance to liedown
and stretch out at full length while he is
growing. He should never he made to
stand upon wes floors: or soiled bedding.
He should have a chance to travel a part of
the day upon dry land. The old idea that
a horse, young or old, is better for stand-
ing upon wet ground is wrong. His feet
should be frequently examined for two
purposes : first to ascertain their condition,
and next, to teach him to be gentle and
bandy in the shop. It is a mistake to
bring up a colt without a few lessons in
manners, and it is wrong to ask a smith to
do with a great strapping colt ina few
minutes what you have delayed doing for
four years.
If the colt has been standing in the barn,
his feet will need cleaning out occasional-
ly. Do this with a piece of lath whittled
out for the purpose. Yon may find thas,
as a result of standing in the stable or up-
on wet ground, his hoofs bave grown for-
ward too far and are too long. Hence they
need trimming, and just how to trim a
colt’s foos to give him a good future and to
prevent ringbones is of itself a little secret.
Do not pare the heel. Do not touch the
frog, but if necessary to trim, and it fre-
quently is, take off a few slices from under
the toe, then take off a neat semicircle piece
from the toe and finish by taking prefera-
bly with a rasp, a very little all around
from the edge of the hoof. In other words,
keep the toe short and give him a square
bearing. The colt and the grown horse,
$00, for that matter, do not naturally have
a long or oblong hoof, but rather a circular
hoof. Its imprint upon the floor should be
somewhat like the outline of an egg. Give
him a short toe, trim off all slivers from the
outside of the hoof, but never cut, mutilate
or otherwise mar the heel or frog. Only an
expert veterinarian should ever be allowed
to meddle with this, the vital part of the
foot. An occasional lonking at the foot of
your colt and reasonable care in regard to
the same will tend to give almost any colt a
good sound hoof and a substantial, well
shaped foot. In his natural state, roaming
over the country and treading all kinds of
soil, the colt did not need the help of man
to give him a perfect foot, hut under artifi-
cial conditions he cannot trim his own feet,
aud you must do it for him. I know sev-
eral first class horsemen who take their
high priced colts to a veterinarian or an ex-
pert shoer to be properly trimmed. And
why not? Men whoare so careful in these
little details are'the ones who raise the
horses that command the large prices we
read of.
And now we come to the full grown
horse. Given a good sound foot to start
with, how shall we keep it sound? Many
a horseshoer devotes his attention to trying
to cure a crippled and deformed foot, and
so far. go good. But how much more im-
portant to know how to maintain the in-
tegrity of a foot that is brought to him in
perfect condition! Weil, now, here are
some of my notions :
Firss study the natural shape of the foot
and try to keep it 20. Do not try to cut
that foot down to a certain size or pattern.
Too many shoers try to please their cus-
tomers by giving the horse a small foot. I
make the statement that at least three out
of ten of our colts are shod the first time
and ever afterward with a shoe one size too
small. Give the horse his natural foot,
give him a good broad base to stand upon.
Now here is another point : I mean broad
across the centre of she hoof, broad all
around. broad half way from the toe to the
beel. I do not mean that you shall try to
make the hearing broader by spreading the
heel of the shoe. Spreading the heel is
wrong. It will ruin the foot and bring on
contraction and shrinkage. The shoe must
follow the crust as far as possible. The
crass is the bearing for the shoe.
Of course, the foot will need a little par-
ing to remove the ragged “edges and slivers
and to give a level bearing for the shoe.
The toe will probably be too long and some
of it will need removing. But remove it
from the under side. Do not make the er-
ror of nailing on a small shoe, and then
chopping off the toe to fit the shoe. So
again, I say, keep the toe short. Pare all
from the under side and chop off nove from
in front, Better use the slicer than the
axe. Stop and think a minute and you
will see what I mean. Put a four inch
block under the ball of your own foot, now
stand there a minute. See how it strain.
your ankle, and the tendons of your legs
The toe is too high. Bus would it belp
your position auy to chop off your toe. No;
take away the block. Do your paring up-
on the crust and from the under side. Do
not dig out the sole. The shoe must fit and
bear upon the crugt.
But keep your knife away from the heel.
Let thas soft, easy paring alone. And
ahove all, let the frog alone. Now, one
more important ‘‘don’s.”” Don’t ever re-
move that bar from along side and in front
of the frog. That ‘‘V’’ shaped bar is the
strength of the hoof. No matter what they
say about ‘giving the foot a spring;'’ leave
that bar alone. It helongs there, and the
removal of it will injnre your horse forever.
They may tell you that it 18 not needed
when the horse wears a shoe. They may
say it binds the foot,but you leave that bar
where it belongs if you have any regard for
the future of the horse.
And yet another “‘don’t.”’ Don’t let
any one burn the foot of your horse with a
hot shoe. No matter what he says, stop
him before he touches that hot iron toa
horse’s foot. Ican quote yon the hest an-
thority in the land to show that I'm righs.
I can give you the hitter experience of the
owners of many crippled horses, and they
will all agree that it is an irreparable in-
jury to a horse to burn his foot.
Here let me review and call your atten-
sion to the vital points of what has been
said :
First—Let the frog alone.
Second —Do not pare the heel.
Third—Keep the toe short by trimming
the under side.
Fourth—Never cut out the bar.
oy
Fifth—Never touch a hot iron to the
hoot.
Now, you can fit the shoe. See that it is
large enough. See that its outline is round
enough to follow the crush. See that it is
right at the heel. and that the crush has a
bearing clear hack. Now, if the foos is not
perfectly level,level it with the finer side of
your rasp. Then apply the shoe. If it fits
it will come just flush with the edge of the
crush all the way around. There will be
no hoof left to hob off, and when the rasp is
applied it will click upon the steel all the
way around. Now nail it on. The nails
should not he too large, nor should we use
too many of them. Better for the colt if
we come again in five or six weeks than
have it remain on the foot until the crush
grows hegond it. OF course, you will ges
the shoe in line with the foot when the
foot is in line with the body. Of course,
the toe calk, if you use one, will he very
low, and the heel calk a little higher. There
now; clinch these nails. Now ran your
rasp around the outside once or twice.
Hear is ring. Now pus his foot down.
How’e that? ‘Well, Doe, I thought that
was going to be an awful looking foot, but
I declare it is the best looking job of shoe-
ing I've seen for a long time.” Yes, and
it ia a good job. That horse will grow a
good, healthy foot with shoes put on that
way, and, if shod that way every time, he
will bring you from $25 to $50 more than
if shod as we frequently see them shod.
Give a horse a good natural foot and a shoe
that fi s, and he will thrive better, drive
better, look better and sell better.
“But how ahout speeding horses, Doc ?”’
Well, sir, that is a watter that does not
concern you or me. Leave that to the ex-
perts. Send the. horse to the city with a
healthy. handsome foot, have something to
work upon,’ and ress assured he’ll do the
rest.— Richard H. Wood, in N. Y. Tribune

Mysterious Cow Disease.
Veterinarians Unable to Tel! What Ails the Ani-
mals.
At the hospital attached to the veteri-
nary department of the University of Penn-
aylvania is a cow hrought from the vicinity
of the Delaware Water Gap, in Monroe
county, suffering with an unknown disease.
Dr. Leonard Pearson, in charge of the
veterinary department, is’ treating here
with a view to learning the exact nature
and cause of the diseases; hut he said re-
cently that 1t puzzled him, and he was not
ready as yet to draw any conclusions re-
garding it.
The cow was brought to Philadelphia
recently from the stock farm of Martin O.
Reagle, near Portland, and is one of the
many belonging to. Mr. Reagle that have
been attacked with the disease in the last
six years. Nearly all have died of it, the
total number which he has lost from this
cause being thirty-five. Other farmers in
the vicinity have met with similar misfor-
tune. Veterinary surgeons have attended
the ailing animals, but have never been
able to alleviate the malady.
It is a mysterious atrophy or starvation
of the tissues. The cows retain their appe-
tites and eat well, but slowly and steadily
waste away, until they became so weak
that they die of exhaustion. Evidently
the food that they consume does not bene-
fit them, but why, no one has yet discov-
ered.
Two members of the staff of the veteri-
nary department of the university went to
Mr. Reagle’s farm a few days ago and made
the antopsy of a cow that had died of the
disease. They found nothing to explain
its death the intestines and stomach being
in a healthy condition. :
The most carefal watch will be kept up-
on the animal which is now at the hospi-
tal, and the results, which will be set
forth in a report by Dr. Pearson, may be
expected to he of interest to science.
The Story of a Nickel.
How it Helped One Woman to an Education.
The name of Rosa Weiss, says the Wash-
ington Post, ought to be dear to every am-
bitious American girl. Not content with
the ordinary education which she received
she was anxioas to ges a collegiate educa-
tion, and one day epoke to her brother
ahout it. He told her he could nos afford
to pay the fees, but, taking a nickle ont of
his pocket. he jestingly said : ‘Go on
shas.”” Even a jest will sometimes serve
as an incentive, and the girl took her broth-
er at his word. She took the nickel and went
out and bought a yard of calico. With it
she made a sunhonnes, which she sold for
a quarter. The quarter she invested in
more calico and more sunbonnets. Then
she sold them to buy still more calico for
still more sunhonnets. She also made
aprons : In this way she soon had a little
pile of dollars at her command. Her
brother was so pleased that he gave her
some land on which, with the assistance of
a little hoy, she cultivated potatoes. In
the first year out of that little patoh she
made $40, and as she got on she was able
to pay her expenses at the college by her
exertions, and she entered the Woman's
Medioal College, at Baltimore, where she
paid for her tuition by nur«ing, and to-day
She isa physician with an excellent prac-
tice.
Thirty Italians Burned in Their Shanty
Abecut 400 Italians are employed at
building a short line of railroad for the
Pennsylvania company between Lilly and
Portage in Cambria county, 65 of whom
were housed in a shack at Lilly, which is
about 16 miles from Altoona. The shack
was 93x27 feet, lined and roofed with tar
paper. About 1 o'clock Saturday morning,
in some accidental manner the stove was
upset, the fiie from which quickly ignited
the huilding, while all were sleeping and
in a twinkling the entire building was a
seething mass, carrying to almost instant
death to twenty of the number and so badly
burning ten more that they cannot live.
Neatly all the others were badly scorched
and burned, and only those nearest the
doots got out with their lives. When the
poor fellows found that they could not find
their way to an exit, they fought like de-
mons, their bodies being found in heaps
when the fire had spent its force.
Not a Mistake in $110,000,000 Count
The work of connting the silver dollars
at the United States mint in Philadelphia,
which was begun last May, has just heen
completed. The count shows there are
110.000 000 dollar coins in the vaults, and
that not a dollar is missing. Following
the completion of the count twelve of the
employes were paid off Wednesday.
Loses Eye Making Taffy.
Miss Nellie Shealer, daughter of Mr.
and Mis. George Shealer, of New Castle,
lost the right of an eye Wednesday night
in a peculiar manner. She was making
taffy when she hot molasses sputtered into
her eye and destroyed the sight.
wr CR ARE a FS, ¥
Mine Explosion.
It Is Believed That an Infernal Machine Was Used.
CrIPPLE CREEK, Col.,, November 21.—
Charles McCormack, superintendent, and
Melvin H. Beck, a miner, were Killed
shortly before noon to-day by an explosion
in the Vindicator mine. Officers of the
Vindicator Mining company assert that the
explosion was cansed by. an infernal ma-
chive, and 400 militiamen have been plac-
ed on guard around the company’s prop-
erties. .
Superintendent McCormack and Miner
Beck were descending into the mine in the
cage. They were the only passengers.
When the cage reached the sixth level the
explosion occurred, wrecking the cage and
shaft, and instantly Killing both men.
After a thorough examination officers of
the company assert thas the infernal ma-
chine, contaifing many pounds of dyna-
mite, had been placed in the sixth level,
which is part of the abandoned workings
of the mine, within a few inches of shaft.
Then a 1aded revolver was fixed in the
shaft. To the trigger of the revolver was
attached a string, which was thrown
across the shaft in such a manner that the
revolver would explode, the bullet strik-
ing the infernal machine. Pieces of this
revolver have been recovered from the bot-
tom of the shaft, but not a vestige of the
infernal machine can be found.
Major Naylor and a detail of fifty sol-
diers were dispatched from Camp Gold-
field to the mine and took charge of the
property. No one was allowed to ap-
proach the miue, and no one permitted to
leave. Shafts on other properties known
0 be connected with the Vindicator work-
ings are also heing guarded.
After receiving news of the explosion
Governor Peabody ordered the troops in
Cripple Creek, who were to proceed to
Tellaride to might, to remain in Cripple
Creek. The force now there numbers
nearly 400.
His Excuse.
Prof. Johnson, of Crozer Seminary, en-
livened a discussion at the closing session
of the Baptist congress, which took place
in Grace Temple last week, with the follow-
ing story which illustrated the manner
wherein one can deceive oneself: —
A little girl, gifted with a vivid imagina-
tion, was in the habit of endowing the pro-
ducts of her brain with the clothing of
truth and relating the imaginary incident
as an actual faot. She was a great story
seller, but the child’s mother determined
to break her of the habit of exaggeration.
One day the httle girl ran breathlessly
into the honse crving:—‘'Oh, mamma, I
just saw a hig lion on our doorstep!’
Thinking to teach her daughter a lesson,
the mother sent her to her room and left
her there alone with an injunction to ask
the Lord to forgive her for telling an un-
truth. After an hour had passed she
thought the little one sufficiently pun-
ished and allowed her come downstairs.
“Did you ask the Lord to forgive you
for saying you saw a lion?” asked the
mother.
“Oh, yes,” was the reply, ‘but the
Lord told me that was all right.”
‘‘He did,” said the mother in astonish-
ment, ‘What did He say?”’
‘‘He said, ‘You needn't feel bad, Helen,
FSi thonghs it was a lion myself.”’—
