The elements were unpropitious
last night, lettering many from at
tending the concert given by the Har-
monia Quartette.
There was, however, a very fair at
tendance, and to say that all who were
present were delighted, scarcely ex'
presses it.
The selections were Of the best and
rendered in a most delightful manner,
the voices of the four blending beau
tifully in the delicious strains, show
ing much study, culture and training.
The several solos were charming.
M. is developing a magnificent bass
voice, full of melody and richness.)
The duet by Messrs Haskell and
Berry was very fine, and pleased every
one that heard it. They were accom-
panied by the young pianist, IL. w.
Davis, who subsequently gave piano
solo most delightfully."-, and with a
sweetness and precision took many by
surprise. He was rewarded with a
well-deserved encore, as were the sing
ers at the close of nearly every piece.

The River Falls Cornet Band are IN
preparation tor another trip to Hudson
where they will give another concert
on or about the oath of March. They
intend to eclipse the previous pro-
gramme rendered in that city and are
sparing no pains to do SO. Their
corps of assistants will be strong in
numbers and of excellent talent. Those
wishing to join the excursion should
secure tickets before the appointed
day to enable the band to furnish suf-
ficient transportation. On the last
trip many deferred getting tickets
and at train time were unable to Sc
cure passage. The only guide the
band have In ordering cars is the
number OF tickets sold during the day.

FENCING.

1t seems to us a self-eviden fact that
the expense of fencing in stock would
be much less than fencing it out, and
yet the more expensive system OF
fencing out has been from the forma-
ton of our government almost uni
versally adopted. While we are well
aware of the fact that many whose
farms adjoin vacant lands argue that
such vacant lands can be economically
utilized under the system of fencing
out, we are of the opinion that the in
creased cost of fencing under this sys-
TEN over that of the other would in
few years amount to sum that would
equal the expense of purchasing the
additional land required for pasturage,
when the cost of maintaining unnec-
essary fences would cease. In a re-
cent address at an agricultural conven-
ton the editor of the New England
Farmer said he had carefully gone
over the statistics of farms, animals,
| crops and cost OF fences, ana Iouno
that on an average for the whole
country it took S1.74 worth of fences
to keep 51.65 worth of stock from
eating up $2.45 worth of crops. Statis-
tics gathered during the taking of the
census in 1870 show that the fences then
in existence had cost 81, 747 $40, 831;
it has been estimated that during the
past nine years this sum has been in
creased to fully $4,000, 100000, and
that interest, repairs and rebuilding
fences amount to $500, 100000 year,
making an annual fence tax far great
or than the entire expenses Of the Ma
tional Government. The question of
how to decrease the expense of fenc-
Ing is one well worthy the careful con-
sideration of our agricultural friends.

JenSOn'S.
A meeting of those interested in
the cultivation of the early amber
cane and in the establishment of q
refinery at this place, was held at
Green's Hall last Saturday afternoon.
There was fair attendance of farm
ers, but a conspicuous absence of bus
mess men and those who are supposed
to be anxious to invest their money in
a promising enterprise. Mr.. Fos-
ter read a series of interviews he had
had with several of our business men
which, although expressing sympa-
thy with the movement, did not indi-
cate desire upon their part to give
it more substantial aid. Mr.. Foster
also related to the meeting recent in
vestigations made by him into the re-
lative merits of different apparatus
for the manufacture of syrup, and
stated as his opinion that an evaporat-
or could be obtained producing better
results and at considerable less cost
than any heretofore used in this vicin-
ity. Some very fine light colored syr-
his favor was exhibited, but was
thought by many not to be of suffi-
cient density to keep pure during
warm weather. Mr.. w. II. Wood
stated that the evaporation he used last
season did not produce as good results
as he desired and that he should not
use it again; thought with the assis-
tance of tinsmith he could make one
much superior. He stated that while
syrup weighing only ten pounds to
the gallon, which would not keep dur
ing warm weather, might be obtained,
wi en- it was made to have a greater
density it was very liable to be of
darker color. Mr.. o. Strahl in a few
remarks introduced the real object of
the meeting-that of organizing a
company with capital OF six thous-
and dollars to build a refinery. A dis
cussion upon this question followed,
participated in by Messrs. E. Burnett,
C. Y. Guy, T. T. Glass, o. S. Powell.
and others, but as there did not seem
to be a sufficient number present who
were willing TO invest in the enter
prise, no further action was taken and
the meeting adjourned. While these
meetings have not accomplished the
object desired, they have awakened a
greater interest in this branch of ag-
riculture which it is hoped at no dis
tant day viii result in the building up
of great industry in this vicinity.
