Selection Problem

I have a table as follow:

Name Cuntr. Mon. Major Year
Peter Canda Jan Sci 2004
Peter Canda Feb Sci 2004
Johin China Jan Art 2004
Johin China Jan Art 2005
Maria Italy Jan Art 2004
Londi Italy Feb Sci 2005
Londi Italy Mar Sci 2005

My objective is to extrct part of the table so that the output cannot have a record that only has different in Month. i.e. the result should be:

Name Country Month Major Year
Pete Canda Jan Sci 2004
John China Jan Art 2004
John China Jan Art 2005
Mary Italy Jan Art 2004
Lond Italy Feb Sci 2005

How can I input the SQL in order to achieve this target?
