They are often produced by the breaking or cutting ofi" of a branch, or by a wound or incision made in the bark. In the management of trained trees, special means are taken. Fig-. 20.

We sometimes see instances of such buds on the stumps of old trees. The terminal and axillary buds produced on young shoots, seem to have a different origin from these ac- cidental buds—the former are connected with the pith of the shoot, as we may see by dissecting them. On cutting into a young shoot below a bud we find a cylinder of pith entering into the bud from the pith of the shoot, but we do not find this connection existing \x\ the case of the adventitious buds. Practically considered, buds are classified as follows:— 1. Lateral,—Those on the sides or circumference of.
