J. w. HODGBS. EORSBSHOE.
' 1N6; 48, 623. Patented July 4, 1865.
1 UNITED STATES lnarram.
J. WILSON HODGES, 0F BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, ASSIGNOR TO HIMSELF AND. P. DE MURGUIONDS,OF SAME PLACE.
HORSESHOE.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 48,623, dated July 4, 1865.
To all whom it mag concern:
Bait known that I, J. WILSON Honsns, of the city and county of Baltimore, and State of Maryland, have made new and useful Improvements in Horseshoes; and I hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exactdescription of the nature, construction, and
operation of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 is a general perspective view of the shoe without the attached roughing-bar. Fig. 2 is the roughing-bar provided with calks or points, and which, when in situ, occupies the groove in the shoe. Fig. 3 is a blank bar, intended to occupy the groove the shoe in the absence of the roughing-blank; and Fig.- 4is a detached section.
The object ofmy improvement is to provide a .roughin g attachment, which may he applied, as required, to a horse-s shoe, and which is removable when the occasion for its use ceases, its place being then occupied bya blank which prevents the groove being filled with dirt.
To enable one acquainted with farming or the care of horses to construct and use my invention, I will describe it in detail.
Ais a horseshoe of' the ordinary contour, and may be or may not be provided with toe and heel calks. On the'lower face of the shoe is a recess or square-sided groove, B, whose ends are somewhat undercut, so that the ends 0 of the bar being first inserted into their ends of the groove B may be retained thereby.
The bar G,bein g laid flat in its place,is secured -by a screw, 1), or several screws, if necessary, or by rivets, if more convenient.
7 calks maybe otany required form and number.
The shoe A is attached in the ordinary way to the hoof of the animal, and does not difler from those commonly used, except in the provision for the insertion of the bar 0, which is applied when a change in the weather renders 'its use prudent, and removed when the occ'asion. for. it ceases, its place being then occupied by the blank F,-wl1ich fills the groove to the exclusion ot the dirt or soil, being secured in the groove B by the screw 1), which passes through the orifice e.
I have thought of using the roughing-bar attached to the face of the shoe without being inserted into a groove; but I do not consider such a device nearly so efilcient, as it would be so much more readily detached by striking against stones, and it would derive no strength of position from its location, but only from the screws or rivets which" are attached to it. In the method shownin the drawin gs the bar is protected from lateral strain or percussion,
and,being part-iallyoverlapped at its rear end, requires fewer rivets or screws, as their chief duty is merely to prevent its dropping out.

screwed thereto, are worn away.
Having described my inventiou,what Iclaim therein as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. The attachable'and removable roughing- EDWARD H. KNIGHT, OOTAVIUS KNIGHT.
The bar itself is light and of small. cost, and may be replaced by a new one when the calks, which are permanently riveted or
