Safe — liei/:nise Davey Tree Surgery is time- 

 proved : its record of successful performance 

 for thousands of estate owners spans a 

 generation. 



Safe — liee.nise no Davey Tree Surgeon is 

 allowed any responsibility until he has 

 conclusively demonstrated his fitness. He 

 must have served his full course of thor- 

 ough pr.ictical training and scientific study 

 in the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery — ^a 

 school, the onl.v one of its kind in" the 

 world, which we conduct for the specific 

 purpose of drilling our men according to 

 Davey methods and Davey ideals. 



Safe — because we who know values in Tree 

 Surgery and who demand and deliver the 



best, select the man to whom the treatment 

 of your priceless trees is to be entrusted. 



Safe — because Davey Tree Surgery has been 

 endorsed as best by the United States Gov- 

 ernment after an exhaustive oflicial investi- 

 gation. 



Safe — because Davey Tree Surgery is rec- 

 ommended by thousands of prominent men 

 and women, whose endorsement you can 

 accept with complete confidence. (Several 

 such endorsements appear on the left.) 



Safe — because Davey Tree Surgeons are 

 picked men, thoroughly trained, conscien- 

 tious, intelligent, courteous, in love with 

 their work. "Men." writes Dr. H. D. House, 

 New York State Botanist and formerly pro- 



fessor in Biltmore Forestry School, "who 

 would do honor to any institution of learn- 

 ing in America." 



Safe — because the Davey Company is a suc- 

 cessful and responsible house, amply able 

 to make good in every instance, and not 

 needing, for the sake of temparary exist- 

 ence, to sacrifice in the slightest degree Its 

 high standards. 



Tree "patching" cannot save your trees. 

 Only scientific, mechanically perfect treat- 

 ment by men trained through years to the 

 point of finished skill can be permanently 

 successful. And for such treatment by such 

 men there is only one safe place to go — to 

 Dnvey Tree Surgeons.
