 spot of great natural beauty on the new country 

 estate -property of Mr. Irenee du Pont, near 

 Wilm ington, Delaware 



JOHN DAVEY 



Father of Tree Surgery 



THE first thought of Mr. du Pont was the preservation and well-being of his fine 

 old trees. In designing great estates or modest country places, there are 

 generally certain trees around which the whole plan is developed. 



Many an owner has located his house, drives and entrance in relation to special trees, 

 only to find, too late, that they were past saving or had been irreparably injured in 

 the execution of the other work. 



What Mr. du Pont is doing on his estate in assuring the health and safety of the 

 trees first, should be done in every instance. This highly important work was in- 

 trusted by Mr. du Pont to the demonstrated skill of Davey Tree Surgeons. Among 

 hundreds of distinguished Davey clients are: 



Mr. VINCENT ASTOR Sen. CLARENCE W. WATSON 



Mr. J. OGDEN ARMOUR Mr. ISAAC UNTERMEYER
