124 OF THE DISEASES 



Make the anterior hole on each side immediately 

 posterior to the " turn up." Let the second and 

 third holes on the outside divide evenly the remain- 

 ing space to the heel. Let the second hole on the 

 inside be opposite to the second hole on the 

 outside. 



6th. Let the nail holes be punched coarse, i.e., 

 nearly in the centre of the web, and brought out 

 straight through to the other side. This may be 

 done with safety where a good crust has been pre- 

 served. 



7th. Fit the shoe accurately to the foot. It 

 must be as large as the full unrasped crust, but no 

 part must project beyond it. The shoe must be 

 continued completely round towards the heels, as 

 far as the crust extends. 



8th. The web must be narrowed at the heels, so 

 that its inside edge may cover the line of the bars, 

 and no more. 



9th. Slope off the heels of the shoe in the same 

 direction as the heels of the crust (see plate 3), so 

 as to prevent the possibility of their catching in the 

 hind shoe. 



loth. Select nails that will fit exactly into, and 

 completely fill, the nail holes. 



11th. Twist off the clenches as short and stubby 

 as possible, and lay them down flat with the 

 hammer, and let the pincers during this time be 

 firmly pressed against the heads of the nails.
