If you havejaulks put on the shoe, have the toe caulk the same height of the heeicaulk, giving the shoe an even bearing. 17 -848-. Question. How should a driving or saddle horse be shod in the?ummer time? Answer*. With a plain flat shoe, as light as possible. I am agreat believer in having all driving horses shod in the front feet^with half shoes, known to horsemen as tips. (See engraving.) All farm horses should be shod with the half shoe. The following engraving showg the half shoe known as the toe-tip. All driving or saddle horses should be shod with this kind ofshoe during the summer months, giving a full frog pressure, and in -246 - many cases it will cure the worst case of contracted feet. I wouldrecommend this shoe to be used on all government horses.
