Trees Treated by us In Mount Vcrco 



itfe, f I CAN P^SERVE YOUR OLD TREES 



Proper feeding of an old tree to give fresh vigor is an impor- 

 tant part of my method of treatment. After decay has been ar- 

 rested and all dead or useless limbs removed, I give special atten- 

 tion to starting new growth. 



The art of tree surgery is comparativelv new, but it is based 

 on scientific principles of plant 

 growth and a knowledge of 

 the causes of disease and decay. 



I undertake the management of orchards, as well as all kinds 

 of ornamental plantations, grading, surveying ; making flower 

 gardens and herbaceous borders ; and give professional advice 

 on estate management. 



J[^°*\\'ritc to me ali^ail any subject concerning care of trees, and I will give 

 you mj- opinion, based on years of cxpc-riciicf.
