Top Grajts in Place 



In this case a single relatively large cion has been 



placed at the end oj each stock branch, so that the new head 



will nave approximately the Jorm oj the original tree. Many orchard 



fruits do better on foreign roots, and this method of top grafting 



is a familiar ^ horticultural procedure. In Mr. 



Burbank's orchards the grafted dons 



are usually new varieties 



to be tested.
