THE MAY CONCERT AT Mt. ST. MARi's
CoLLEGE.--As only a brief notice Of this
fine entertainment appeared last week,
lowing to our limited time and space we
think a fuller account should be given. If
we mistake not there are four of these con.
CCrtS given during each scholastic year
this having been the last one prior to the
commencement. The evening was fine
one, and our ride to the Institution was
very pleasant. Upon our arrival at the
Institution we were very Courtcously en-
tcrtained for a short time by the Rev. Fa-

moments the hall was well filled by yisitC rs
and the orchestra, under the immediate
leadership of DR.. Diciman made its appear
an,c on the stage, and were received with
great applause. The opening piece WAS
one of the doctors grand marches, which
was rendered very finely This was followed
by an address from Mr. G. b. Ernst, upon
the Landing Of Pilgrims in Moryland,'
Then came an overture by the tnll orchcS-
ira, followed by a sentimental song 10y Mr..
! O'Bricn, who rendered il very admirably
indeed. Several excellent waltzcs were
then performed, and Mr.. Martin Il student
delivered very fine address, putting lor.h
that grace and enthusiasm SO seldom seen
in a Young orator rhcn came the great
mus, cal prodigy, Dr.. ID, with enc of his
violin solos, which was the occasion OF
much cachoiring. A comic duet c'katC

Prof. Hickey, and Mr.. O'Brien - which
was very humorous, and created mucl,
mcrrimcnt We were then entertained by
several other splendid selections, after
which Military Gallagher, Il student from

THE FARM.
ADVANTAGES OF SHALL FARMS.

A correspondent writes to the De-
partment Of Agriculture from Van
Bnren, Iowa, that he is running a
small farm Of forty acres, with twenty
under cultivation in fruit, vegetables,
and small grain. "My income varies
from $500 to $4,000 year," he
appears proud 10 acknowledge. The
more industry and intellect one puts
into an acre Of soil, The more money
he is likely to take ont of it. His
judgment should tell him wheat crops
will pay best in the markets within
his reach, with a small farm close in
hand. small taxes. and small outgo
for labor. feed. and working stock.
There is both art and good sense in
keeping down expenses on the farm,
and in other branches Of business.
Success in tillage and husbandry
depends on the capacity Of the hui
man brain, rather than on the size of
ones plantation. One family, 10y
skill, industry an economy, becomes
rich by cultivating twenty acres only,
while another family g'ows poor by
the bad management OF 1000 under
the pillow. 1t is not the pursuit, but
the man, that is a failure. The
farmer often grasps more acres than
he can handle TO the best advantage,
and all are more or less sighted at
certain times and seasons to the III.
Jury Of his cash income. Labor is
misdirected, or neglected til out of
season, when vitality i'll seeds and
cultivated plants does no good. On
a small farm every blow may be
struck at the proper moment.
Every person has but a limited
quantity or force, physical and ment-
al; aud it is the most common Of all
mistakes to dilute and spread this
force over too large surface.

MANAGEMENT OF SHEEP.

A correspondent gives some excel
lcnt ADV, ice in tn, Country Gentleman
concerning the management OF sheep
from which we quote. the following:
The number of sheep in summer
flock, if the pasture is not rough,
thereby causing too much travel 10y
the sheep to get their living, may be
as many as the owner can oversee
and care for; in the winter not more
than 100 should be kept together, and
Il smaller flock is preferable in every
respect. Sheep, if kept in large hocks
do not winter rs well, besides wasting
more feed in proportion.
AS TO which breed will stand the
greatest amount of cold, probably the
Vermont mernoes suffer the least
from cold, but any sheep, if strong
and healthy, with plenty to eat, will
endure any amount of cold weather
if they are only kept in dry yard
and have dry place to eat and sleep
in. Here is the great cause of failure
in many cases-m0ddy yards and
leaky sheds, or worse, no sheds at all.
The best food for sheep | ever
used, all things considered, is good,
bright, early-cut hay, and one peck
of corn and oats, mixed equal parts
to 100 sheep daily. Roots may be
we'll enough, but one season cured
me Of any desire TO raise and feed
them.
The sheds for 200 ewes should
contain 1900 square feet of flooring,
aud more is better; each sheep needs
at least ten square feet Of space.
Opinions differ as to the number
Of sheep to be anportjoued to one
ram; many think 100 euoagh. Tn
/ less everything is arranged for the
purpose Of raising very early or win
ter lambs, it is best 20 have them
come about the time grass grows !;
but to DO this, pasture must be had
convenient to the barn, rs ,hev should
hr guarded nights during the lamb
7 ing season, and seen frequently
through the day.
