This system is applicable when the vigneron is in possession ofnon-resistant vines and resistant cuttings, and it is desired to obtaina proper producing variety on a resistant stock the first year, makinga sure union and forming abundant roots and a strong plant. To dothis we combine the two preceding systems, giving the curve to thecane of the non-resistant vine, F (Fig. 39), uniting with whatever GRAFTING THE VINE. 33. system may be most desirable at G, and leaving at least two or threebuds on the resistant cane; then give all care possible to the secondgraft, G, and success is certain. All operations connected with this system are of the greatest sim-plicity and easily performed: a suitable cane is selected in its naturalposition; grafted in this position at a height convenient to work, thesecond being done likewise at a convenient height above the trench being dug, the vine thus augmented and changed is laiddown and fastened with care, and the whole covered over after tyingthe graft up to a stake. There is equal simplicity in Figures 37 and38. Care is necessary in layering and covering the cane, to avoidderanging the grafts. 5t I 34 DIFFERENT METHODS OF V-GRAFriNG ON ROOTS.
