Attention must be given to shoeing and a rest of 

 several weeks in a well-bedded box-stall is helpful. 

 If the sole is "dropped" to a considerable extent, 

 heavy leather should always be applied between the 

 shoe and foot ; or better still, a protection band of iron 

 should run across the bottom of the foot between the 

 sides of the shoe. This band must not quite touch 

 the sole.
