Don’t make the mistake of taking your trees for granted. This is a common 
error of many home owners. They have real value, as you would quickly find 
out should you have to make a replacement. It takes many years to grow a fine 
specimen, which, if weakened through neglect, can be ruined in a few moments 
during a severe storm. Trees eat, breathe, and become diseased—just like 
humans. It, therefore, is necessary to call in an expert at intervals to inspect 
and suggest how to keep them in a healthy condition.

Trees are attacked 
by many insects. 
Some chew the leaves 
and others suck 
the sap from the 
leaves and bark. 
There is but one 
way to check these 
pests and that is by 
spraying at the proper 
seasons. A properly 
sprayed tree is ade- 
i the entire season.

Dead and dying limbs 
in your trees are not 
only unsightly, but al¬ 
so provide a breeding 
ground for insects and 
diseases. Therefore, 
pruning is highly im¬ 
portant to the appear¬ 
ance and health of 
trees and consists of 
the removal of all 
dead, diseased, inter¬ 
fering, and undesirable limbs, and the paint¬ 
ing of all cuts[with[a compound which water¬ 
proofs, preserves,fand acts as an antiseptic. 
The first step in pre¬ 
serving your trees is 
to keep them well- 
nourished. An under¬ 
nourished tree, like an 
underfed person, is sus¬ 
ceptible to disease and 
the attacks of insects 
and borers. In our 
forests, trees are fed 
by decaying leaves. 
This, of course, does 
not occur where trees are growing around 
homes as the leaves are raked up and not 
allowed to rot. Therefore, it becomes neces¬ 
sary to feed them artificially.
