Brogden's cows, and, no doubt to the astonishment of the mother as well ash ci owner, .the calf was found to have neither hind legs or off fore leg, the only semblance of a limb being where the near fore leg should be, and this apology for, oue~ is shaped more like a wing than anything else. The animal has also only one nostril, thongh apparently furnished with a double mouth. * ; ;
