FiGTJEES 12 AND 13 — Are sole and profile views of a thoroughly 

 good foot, properly shod for heavy draught. The sole well cleaned 

 out, and the frog and bars left. The toe caulk extending sufiiciently 

 far across the toe to give a solid support to the limb ^yhen only the 

 toe is on the ground ; and the upturned toe tip affording a firm abut- 

 ment against the sloping point of the hoof. The direction of the 

 fibres of the hoof as shewn on the cut will enable the reader the 

 better to follow the arguments used at pages 146-7.
