er than the other. In general, ii is
a good plan to cut the scion so that
the lowest bud will come just at the
top Of this wedge, so that 1t will be
near the top Of the stock. BY cut
ting the wedge thicker at one side the
pressure of the stock is brought upon
the outer growing part of both scion
and stock. whereas were the scion
thicker on the inner side the condi-
lions would be reversed and the death
of the scion would follow. The i'm
portance of having an intimate con-
nection between the growing tissues
Of both scion and stock cannot be
too strongly emphasized, for upon this
alone the success of grating depends.
To make this contact of the growing
portions doubly certain, the scion is
often set at slight angle with the
stock into which 1t is inserted in or
der to cause the growing portions Of
the two to cross.
After the scions have been set the
operation Of cleft grating IS COM
pleted by covering all cut surfaces
with layer of grating wax.

All the common pomaceous fruits
(apples, pears and quinces). the stone
fruits (peaches, plums. cherries and APP
ricots), and the citrus fruits demons,
lines and oranges) are now multi
piled by grating or budding The
progress In plant breeding and the
great rapidity with which new sorts
are now disseminated could not be OBJ
tanned without the aid of budding or
grating. Under existing conditions
1t is not necessary for the originator
of new sort of apple to give any
thought to the question of fixing that
type so 1t may be reproduced from
seed the method of reproducing the
sort does not enter as factor into his
efforts to secure the desired variations
Grating or budding has settled that
long ago; but were it otherwise. horti-
culturists would be studying different
problems, and the nurseryman would
be more of scientist than a manu-
facturer.
A scion is q portion cut from a
plant TO be inserted upon another Cor
the same) plant, with the intention
that 1t shall grow. Except for her
baceous grating the wood for scions
should be taken while in dormant
or resting condition. The time usu-
ally considered best is after the leaves
have fallen, but before severe freez-
ing begins. The scions are tied in
lunches and buried in moist sand,
where they will not freeze and yet
be kept cold enough to prevent growth.
Good results often follow cutting
scions in the spring just before or at
the time the grating is to be done.
If cleft grating is the style TO be EN-
ployed, this practice frequently gives
good results, but spring cutting Of
scions for whip grating is not desir-
able, as not enough time Is given for
proper healing of the wound before
planting time in the spring.

a plant upon which or into which the
bud or scion Is inserted. For best re-

or so that active growth can be quick
ly brought about.
This style of graft is particularly
adapted to large trees when for any
reason it becomes necessary to change
the variety. Branches too large to be
worked by other methods can be cleft
grated.

inches In diameter is severed with a

The scion should consist of por.

scion, which Is to be inserted into the

COLLETION OF
 SALMON EGGS IN ALASKA

Washington, Dec. 3.-The Bureau rs Fisheries, Department of Com merce announces that a very sue cessful collection of sockeye salmon eggs was made at the close of the spawning season in Alaska for the Afcgnak station, the total amount inc to 54,6S1,OOO, which constitutes the largest take of that species since the Katmai eruption in 1912, and seems to indicate the complete re- covery of the stream from the dls@S- trous effects of that occurrence. In view of the encouraging situation commercial fishing for sockeyes by the natives, which has been prohio- ited for a number of years, was resumed on a limited scale during the summer. Humback eggs to the number of S,697,OO0 were also se- cured. and in continuation of the Bureaus efforts to establish a run of this species in Puget Sound dur ing the off" year, ,750,0O0 of them were sent down from Afognak and divided between the Birdsview and the Hoods Canals (Washington) natcheries. With them came 25'SOO 900 sockeye eggs, of which 2O,7OO'- 900 were resNipped from Seattle to Canadian hatcheries on the Fraser River The remainder will be de veloped at the Quinault station, in an effort to build up the depleted run of fish in streams of that re- zion. sI '7As@'k
 Though not unusually large, the take of eggs at Yes Bay was satis- factory, the total for the season com prising 4S,665,OOO sockeys and l. 365,OOO humpbacks. Most Of the eggs of the latter species will be shipped to the Maine stations, in continuation Of the effort to eStab- fish the humpback in Atlantic wat CTS,
