"THE 



DOCTOR" 



by 



Jlohn Dovey 



*• The RatHen of Tree Swrgery '♦ 



"The Tree Doctor" is recognized as the standard ' 

 authority on the practical care of shade trees, orchards, 

 lawns, shrubs, flowers, and vineyards. 



Tree structure, tree surgery in all its phases, proper 

 and improper root conditions, the growing of fruits, the 

 care of trees in public places, remedies of insect pests and 

 tree diseases, the cultivation of flowers, various types of 

 landscaping, the relation between trees, birds, and insects — 

 these and kindred subjects are treated exhaustively, and 

 the various points brought out in the text are clearly illus- 

 trated by an abundance of photographs, specially selected 

 for this work from thousands taken by the author during 

 his many years of experience in the care and study of trees. 



This book is not written by a mere theorist, but by the most successful tree specialist of his 

 time — a man who has spent nearly half a century in the most intimate contact with the subjects 

 of which he treats. It is indispensable to the man who loves his home and its surroundings. 

 It is interesting, instructive, elevating.
