several forms Of grating, but they DIFF.
Ter more In method than in results. In
fact. so far as the top of the tree is

all cases whether we bud or graft The
object sought is TO change an undesir-
able or uncertain tree into one which
we know viii produce a variety whose
fruit will possess certain desirable char
