Of the cattle shipped, nearly all went to Great Britain. Had 
there been no pleuro-pneumonia in the United States, each of 
these bullocks might probably have been sold for fully $15 more 
than was got for him. This would make a difference of $1,600,000 
in favor of American cattle-growers .—Prairie F%rmer . 
A Three-Legged Colt.* —In a stall at the iron yard of Mi. 
Philip Lewinski, at 254 and 256 Nassau Street, Brooklyn, L. I., 
reclines, or rather stands, for he is on his feet most of the time, a 
three-legged colt. A freak of nature robbed him in embryo of 
his right fore-leg, but the absence of this member does not entirely 
prohibit him from indulging in the playful antics peculiar to 
youngsters. He was foaled July 24, 1882, at St. Ours, Province 
of Quebec, Canada, and is a remarkably large colt for his age. 
The leg has not been amputated, but is the result of malforma¬ 
tion. The shoulder blade is perfect, but, as a matter of course, 
without the limb, the colt is unable to move it. Where the arm 
of the leg should begin, the bone seems to have curved, making it 
appear round both to the eye and touch; skin and hair cover it 
completely, no abrasion or parting being visible. With the ex¬ 
ception of the missing leg, the animal is built as he should be ; 
but when standing behind and looking through the legs, the only 
fore-leg slopes so that the foot comes directly in the centre of the 
chest. When moving, the fore-leg is thrown forward by a slight 
upward jump, and the hind-legs are moved as if walking. The 
colt feeds well and romps about the stable, but unless exhibited, 
will never pay his way.— Turf, Field and Farm.
