GRAFTING is but a modification of propagation by cut- 

 tings. The scion is a cutting of the variety we wish to 

 propagate, winch, instead of being committed to the 

 ground to emit its own roots, is placed in contact with 

 tissues of a nature similar to its own, through which it is 

 to form a connection with the roots and the soil. The 

 success of the operation depends upon the formative cell 

 in this instance also, as in the cutting ; new cells arc
