BENCH-GRAFTING RESISTANT VINES. 231 



America grafted with Zinfanclel ; English graft with 

 scions of two eyes on one-year-old rooted stock. The grafts 

 showed good growth ; six grafts of the ten had started, that 

 is about 60 per cent. 



Munson grafted with Zinfanclel ; one-year-old rooted stock, 

 scions of two eyes, English graft. The grafts showed good 

 growth ; a few only showed small rootlets on the scions ; 

 eleven, or 85 per cent., were growing. 



Champini grafted with Zinfanclel ; one-year-old rooted 

 stock, scions of two eyes, English graft. The scions did not 

 take in most cases, the proportion being about 30 per cent. 



Elvicand grafted with Zinfanclel, one-year-old rooted stock, 

 scions of two eyes, English graft. The grafts showed very 

 poor growth, and only about 29 per cent, growing at all. 



Mondeuse on Rupestris St. George ; Champin graft, scions 

 of two eyes. The shoots were found to be short, about 5 or 

 6 inches long. Only a few rootlets were found on the scions, 

 and many of them were dead already. The proportion of 

 growing grafts was about 63 per cent. Altogether the 

 Mondeuse were growing less vigorously on Kupestris St. 

 George than the Zinfanclel. 



Lenoir grafted with Zinfaudel ; English graft, scions of 

 two eyes. Many of the grafts did not grow, they were 

 found dry and dead ; the few growing were backward in 

 development ; the nourishment came apparently from the 

 reserve food in the cuttings, as there were few or na roots on 

 the stock. Only 28 per cent, were growing. 



American Rulander grafted with Zinfanclel ; English 

 graft, scions of two eyes. Neither scions nor stock had 

 developed roots ; a few were growing somewhat by means of 

 reserve food ; in all 19 per cent. 



Herbemont grafted with Zinfandel ; English graft, scions 

 of two eyes. A few started to grow (about 24 per cent.), 

 but no roots were found on the scions or the stock. 



Cunningham grafted with Zinfandel ; English graft, 

 scions of two eyes. No roots had formed on the scions. 

 The growth was small, and only 26 per cent, showed any. 



Riparia Gloire de Montpellier grafted with Zinfandel ; 

 Champin graft, scions of two eyes. The green shoots were 

 5 to 6 inches long, some even smaller (that is, shorter) than 

 those on Rupestris St. George. But few rootlets were found 

 on the scions. The proportion of growing grafts was 58 per 

 cent.
