As regards its value and practicability,it may be said that this system, applied to thefree graft, is valuable, but in joining the parts asabove, laterally, the union is always incompleteand the graft very difficult to make. Before leaving the above ground work,which is not very common on the whole, it maybe of interest to know of a very ingenious planpracticed by a certain viticulturist of IArdiche. This vigneron raised both resistant and non-resistant vines in numerous pots, which sameFig. 11. could be placed in the nursery, hot-house, orelsewhere, not interfering with other culture; then, when required,the same vines were readily transplanted from the pots and united. Fio. 12. Bt 18 DIFFERENT METHODS OF. Fig. 13. GRAFTING THE VINE. 19 B—GRAFTING BELOW GROUND BY APPROACPI. Although so numerous, some vignerons liave practiced all of themethods of grafting contained in this publication, and also, to makethe list complete, the following systems, which must therefore beincluded. Some, as may be seen, are sufficiently exi)lained by thecuts or figures presented and require no further description. 12.—GRAFTING BELOW GROUND BY APPROACH OF A RESISTANT CUTTING ONAN OLD NON-RESISTANT VINE. This method is employed to utilize the remaining vigor of an oldnon-resistant vine, by transferring its remaining vitality to the youngresistant vine at its side; the method has been and continues to befrequently used.
