“I'll let it wait.” The death sentence of many a fine, patrician tree has been 
pronounced when its owner said, “I'll let it wait.” 
Decay does not “wait.” Decay results from disease that gives no quarter. It 
eats with grim progressiveness into the living wood-tissue of trees. To neglect 
it is dangerous — ultimately fatal. The regrading of a lawn, repair of a drive, building alterations — these 
things you can “put off” if something must wait. 
But you cannot ignore the mute appeal of your trees for help. 
Trees are living, breathing things. The attacks of disease and insect enemies, the ill-effects of hunger and 
thirst and other adverse conditions are dangers that must be discovered and checked without delay — or it 
will soon be too late. Often the untrained eye cannot discern the menace. A splendid, vigorous tree looks 
to be in the bloom ot health; but it may be so weakened by hidden decay that it is but a shell, ready to crash 
to earth in the first high wind. 
To “put off" examination and treatment of your trees also means increased cost. Little decay cavities can 
be quickly and economically treated by real Tree Surgeons. As they grow larger, the cost of saving the 
tree becomes proportionately greater. 
For your priceless trees you will want Tree Surgeons of unquestioned skill and established responsibility. 
Davey Tree Surgeons have, during a generation of honest service, met the highest expectations of thousands 
of America’s estate owners. 
Do you know the true conditions of your trees? You certainly ought to — you owe it to yourself. Davey 
Tree Surgeons will, by appointment, give them a careful examination and render an accurate report.
