Figures 7, 8, 9, 10, 6, representing the surface of the , the resistant vine should be set in the desired place, A (Fig-ures 7, 8, 9, 10); that it be maintained straight and erect, curving thenon-resistant vine, F (Figures 7, 8, 9, 10), if necessary, in order thatthe roots may be so arranged as to be easily removed when severedfrom the other GRAFTING THE VINE. ]5 N .-Ijr 8.—WOODY GRAFTING ABOVE GROUND BY APPROACH OF CUTTINGS ON CUT-TINGS, PREVIOUS TO PLANTING. Cuttings have the advantage of being more supple,and accordingly presenting a greater number of sidesor surfaces to choose from; further, by the use of cut-tings a years time may be gained in the planting overputting them in nursery. It may happen here thatone of the cuttings—the two of wliich in this case formboth subject and graft—takes root and the other doesnot. So much the better if it happens to be the rightone, as this would do away with the necessity ofremoving the roots of the non-resistant vine, this beingthe one which does not root. If, on the other hand, itbe reversed, and the wrong cutting takes root, which,however, is rarely the case, then the planting of theresistant variety will have to be repeated. 9.—WOODY GRAFT ABOVE GROUND, BY APPROACH BETWEENA ROOTED RESISTANT VINE AND A NON-RESISTANT CUT-TI
