The blanket 1, cloth, âWestern Sportsman and Live Stock Journal. ** Tips &nd Toe Weights," a natural and plain method of horseshoeing. Is the title of a very Clever, ingenious and practical book from the pen of Joseph Cairn Simpson, the Editor and Proprietor of the Biieedeb and Spobtsman. The author in his introduction presents "his little volume with apolo- gies;" be had no need to do so, every chapter gives evidence cf careful thought, his arguments are well worked out, the results of his experiments are placed in the most perspicuous manner before his readers, and his researches into the past show that he is at once an enthusiastic and veracious student of the horse. His great argument on tips receives its strongest cndorsation from his famous colt Anteeo, whose history from his first shoeing to the time of publication is exhaustively treated. The opening chapter is a plea for a better system of shoeing, and each succeeding chapter is a step o; the ladder towards that final conclusion which the author has arrived at. He brings history, theory anu experiment Into play to support his argument, and whether the horseman believes in his conclusions or not, he will not quit the book till he has real it through, for in addition to the perfect knowledge of the horse which the author possesses, he surrounds it with a literary charm, which holds the audience to the last sentence. We heartily commend "Tips and Toe Weights" to the attention of the public.âChicago News, Tips and Toe Weights.âJ. C. Simpson has been prominently Identified with trotters for many yea
