The cion is cut wedge-shape, asfor cleft-grafting, and it is pressed intothe incision until its cut surfaces are con-cealed in the stock. The wound is thentied, and, if it is above ground in theopen, it is waxed. The stock is headedback vigorously to aid in deflecting a partof the energy into the cion. This methodof grafting may be used to good advan-tage upon rather small grape stocks, be-low the surface of the ground. A modification of this style of side-grafting is the cutting side-graft,shown in Fig. 114. This is adapted toroot-grafting, particularly of the stock is cut wedge-shape, and is in-serted into an oblique incision in the side-graft which is a combination ofbudding and grafting isshown in Fig. 115. Theincision in the stock is exactly like that made for shield-budding (Fig. 90), but a cion, cut wedge-shape,
