Knot on Tree.
In tho barks of our forest trees nre
contained a multitude of latent buds,
which are developed and grow under
certain favorablo conditions. Some
trees possess Jills property In a remark
able degree, aud often, when the other
parts are killed down by frost, tho
property of pushing out these latent
buds Into growth preserves tho life of
the plant. These buds, having once
begun 1o grow, adhere to the woody
layer at their base and pusti'otit their
points through the back toward .the
light.
The buds then unfold and develop
leaves, which elaborate the sap carried
up the small shoot. Once elaborated it
descends by the bark, when It reaches
the base or Inner bark. Here It is ar
rested, so to speak, and 'deposited be
tween1 the outside and inner layer of
bark, as can be learned on examining
specimens 6u the trees In the wood
almost anywhere. '
