fodder was taken off'just about the
time tho pea begun to bloom, the corn
was then no longer in the way of the
growth of the pea. The peas then run
and tool: hold of the corn-stalks and
run upoa them, and I think bore a
larger crop of peas than if they had
been alone, and the vines had to lie on
the ground. I suppose this is readily
understood by any person who knows
the nature of a climbing vine. I also
planted one acre in peas alone, last
year, on the 1 Oth day of J une, after I
had taken oil a crop of wheat. This
acre, I planted for the purpose of mak
ing pca-xine hay. Having had no ex
perience in tlii. business, I did not
know at what stage of the growth was
the proper time to save the vines. I
discovered that about the time the pea
begins tc mature the leaf begins to de
cay and fall off. I was then at a loss
to kEC?* whether I was gaining more
by the maturing of the j>ea, than I was
losing by the decaying leaf. I decided,
hoxvever, that I was gaining more in
the matured pea than 1 was losing in
the leaf, and let them remain till the
crop xvas about half matured. I then
pulled up the vines, and found it a very
difficult matter to cure them properly;
the leavei almost entirely fell off’, and
the vines were very hard to cure. 1
think there was twelve or fourteen
bushels of ripe peas to the acre, when :
the vines xvcrc pulled, and I think they i
would have made twenty-five budicL
if they had been left to mature.

r PHE ALDINE, while issued with
JL all the regularity, ha* none of the temporary
or timely interest characteristic of ordinary pcri«Hl-
icals. It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light,
and graceful literature, and a collection of nictures,
the rarest spccini* dm of artistic skill, in black and
white. Although each succeeding numlier atlonis
afresh pleasure to it.* friends, the real value and
beauty of The Aldine will be most appreciated af
ter it has been bound up at the close of the year.—
While other public publications may claim superior
cheapness a* com pared with rivals of a similar class,
The Aldine is a unique and original conception-
alone and unapproached—absolutely without com
petition in price or character. The possessor of the
volume just completed cannot duplicate the quan
tity of finepapernnd engravings in any other shape
or number of volumes far ten tunes itseost.
The labor of getting The Aldine ready on the
press is so great that reprinting is out of the ques
tion. With the exception of a small number spe
cially reserved for binding, the editiou of 1871, is
already exhausted, and it is now a scarce as weil as
valuable l>ook.

has cotiviuced tho publishers of The Aldine of the
soundness of their theory that the American pub
lic would recognize and heartily support any sin
cere effort to olevate the tone and standard of illus
trated publications. That mo ntanv weakly wicked
blivets exist end thrive is not evidence that there
b no market for anything better—indeed the suc
cess of The Aldine from tho start is direct proof of
the contrary. With a population so vast, and of
such varied taste, a publisher can choose hi* pa
trons, and lib paper is rather indicative of his own
than of tho taste of the country. As 3 guarantee
of the excellence of this denurtmont, tho publish

These picture* are being reproduced without re-
gartl to expense by the very best engravers in the
country, and will bear the severest critical compar

be a successful vindication of American taste iti
competition with any existing publication in the
world.
LITERARY DEPARTMENT.
Where so much in paid to illustration and get up
of the work, too much dependence on appearances
may very naturally l*e feared. To anticipate such
misgivings, it is only neecs>ary t.* state that the
editorial management of The Aldine has been in
truded t*. Mr. KlUfiAKP HENRY STODDARD,
who ha* received a*sutaucc» of assistance from a
host of tbs ino*t popular writers and potifd of the
country,
THU VOLUME FOR 1872
will contain nearly 300 pages, and ul»out 1*30 tine
engravings. Commencing with the number for
January, every third number will contain a beau
tiful tjntod picture on plat© paper, inserted as a
frontispiece.
The Christmas number for 1872 will lie a splendid
volume in itself, containing fifty engraving*, (four

without extra charge to all yearly subscribers.
