JOHN DAVBY 

 Father of Tree Surgery 



Do you really know what is the condition of your trees? 



Yes, they probably look all right to the untrained eye. But 

 a fine valuable tree may appear healthy and still be rotting 

 away on the inside or be ready to split to pieces in any high 

 wind. 



On a certain large estate where a squad of Davey Tree Sur- 

 geons were at work, the Davey representative called the 

 owner's attention to a beautiful tree with a badly splitting crotch. The 

 owner, not realizing its serious condition* replied, "Let that one go for 

 a while; there are some other ones I wish to take care of first." No 

 amount of argument would cause him to change his decision. A heavy 

 summer storm happened to come up a week or so later, and half of that 

 tree crashed to the ground. This same thing is happening to thousands 

 upon thousands of fine trees every year. And all because the owners, 

 not realizing the dangerous conditions that may exist, neglect them just 

 because the leaves are green and the trees may look healthy and safe. 



For the treatment of your priceless trees you will certainly require 

 Tree Surgeons of unquestioned skill and responsibility. The Davey 

 Organization of several hundred highly trained men of fine character 

 has been built slowly and patiently to give the utmost in Tree Surgery. 

 A careful examination of your trees will be made by appointment
