Do you really know wliat 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 Surgeons were at 
work, the Davey representative called the owner’s attention to a beautiful tree 
Avith 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 Avish to take 
care of first.’’ No amount of argument Avould cause him to change his deci¬ 
sion. A heavy summer storm happened to come up a Aveek or so later, and half 
of that tree crashed to the ground. This same thing is happening to thou¬ 
sands 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.
