 on the solid rock of John Davey's knowledge of tree life — equaled by that of no other man — it has 

 been brought to a high degree of perfection tlirough thoroughly tested methods, adequately trained 

 men, and a live and healthy organization. All of these elements of strength combine to 

 give a service of quality that affords protection alike to trees and tree-oiviicrs.

 living things that are your friends, you should help 

 your trees to overcome defects and prolong life. Dead 

 lirabs or decaying stubs should be removed and the 

 wounds protocted to prevent further dec:. . Open or 

 hidden cavities should be cleaned, treated and filled.
