About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Tips and Toe-Weights: A Natural and Plain Method of Horse-Shoeing; With an Appendix Treating of the Action of the Race-Horse and Trotter as Shown by Instantaneous Photography, Toe and Side-Weights I present this little volume with apologies, requesting the forbearance of my readers for the want of connection, and in many cases repetitions, which are due to desultory manner the work has been done. This is in a great measure owing to awaiting the results of experiments and taking up the subject after the lapse of long intervals. As the experiments progressed parts were written and published, and then there would arise questions which necessitated further delays. At one time I thought of rewriting the whole work, which would have afforded the opportunity to correct the lack of continuity, and then I thought it better to present it as it was, thus giving the stages as they occurred. The first chapter was published in April, 1876, and nearly eight years have been occupied in experimenting, and though confined to a small number of horses, the extension over so long a period has made the trials equivalent to a larger number of cases for a shorter time. In fact, the experiments could not have been carried out in a less space than three years, as in the case of Anteeo, a colt was taken as a subject from the first time of shoeing, when fifteen and a half months old until nearly four years of age. By taking an animal as young as Anteeo, and contining the use of tips until so nearly matured, the test was thorough as to the effect on the feet and legs.
