With this implement an expert man can set from 400 to 800 grafts per dayâin many cases only one or two grafts have failed out of 500. The tools should be kept sharp, and are set by feathers in the back of saw and knives, to cut and set small or large grafts. Caro should be observed to have both tools set so that the graft can be placed in lirmly with a small mallet with- out splitting the limb. When the graft is properly set, the cut part o"f the graft and limb should be carefully protected from the weather by grafting wax. They will yield more than twice their cost in each day's labor to the grafter, and to the orchardist an increased yearly revenue.
