T 1IOSK fine old trees, those towering 
monarchs that stand vigil over your 
estate — how have they withstood the 
winter ? The howling blasts have rocked 
their stalwart trunks, tons of ice and snow- 
have dragged down their sturdy limbs — 
only the physically perfect ones hav° a 
chance to escape serious injury, and some 
of them are harmed. Perhaps some of 
your trees — trees that you have learned 
to love, trees that are an integral part of 
your landscapi — have been branded with 
premature death. Bravely they will put 
forth buds and tiny leaves, will simulate 
the appearance of health and strength— 
and yet be suffering from fatal injuries 
both visible and invisible. Last winter's 
tearing winds may have weakened their 
structures, internal decay may be at work 
— and yet you may remain unsuspecting 
until some later storm sends them crash- 
ing to the earth. 
Only the skilled Tree Surgeon, the sea- 
soned practitioner who knows the anato- 
my of t lie tree and its troubles as the physi- 
cian knows the human body, can Ice sure. 
The demonstrated skill and established 
responsibility of Davey Tree Surgeons is 
your safeguard. Their years of wide pub- 
lic service, their methods of proved value, 
their thorough training in an organization 
of recognized stability, will fulfill your 
highest expectations. They have satisfied 
the most exacting clientele in America. 
A careful examination of your trees will 
be made by appointment.
