The Besson graft(Fig. 5) like that of Horwath, isinserted on the node itself; but whilethe method of the Hungarian viticult-urist is a true budding, that of Bessonis an inlaying. This graft is made in spring, atthe same time as the ordinary benchgraft. A special pair of shears isused, with curved blades perpen-dicular to the handle; it cuts andlifts the bud, the same operationbeing made on the stock and scioncanes. The lateral portion detached must be a little under one-half ofthe thickness of the shoot; the cut is regularly curved and concave,and about one inch Fig. 5. BESSON GRAFT. {Rev. de Fit., 1894.) O UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA—EXPERIMENT STATION. On the stock, the second eye,counting from the top of the cutting,is cut out; while for the scion any one of the eyes on the cane is scion-bud fits perfectly, as it is the same blade that makes the twocuts. The cuttings to be grafted should be sixteen inches in lengththeir top being limited by a bud cut half-way through. The graft istied with raffia, as in other bench grafts. So far, this graft tried ongreen shoots has not been a success, but on the ripe canes the resultshave been very good and the quality of the knitting is specially good. Clarac Graft. In the Clarac graft (Figs. 6 and 7), as in the Besson graft, a bud issubstituted for another bud, but the process differs in many prepare the stock an incision is made an eighth of an inch above abud (Fig. 6, a) and the incision is continued in a straight sectionparallel to the axi
