An interesting operation was performed at a blacksmith’s shop in Gisborne last week, when several bullocks were shod. This is an experiment for this district, says the Herald, and, as a matter of fact the shoeing of bullocks i rarely heard of. Tho animals which went through the operation were four of a team, . The owner explained that ho was having the horses shod as an experiment, for he found that tho rough metal on the roads caused the bullocks to go lame. If this proved a success, he would have tho others done.
