The owner of an estate upon which Davey Tree Surgeons -were at work possessed 
a magnificent oak. Its great top was green and flourishing—the owner thought it 
perfect. But one day a Davey Tree Surgeon, examining it closely, saw an ant 
coming out of a tiny hole. A few strokes of the chisel showed serious internal 
decay. Thorough excavation revealed a cavity of startling size, extending more 
than twenty-five feet up the trunk! 
Take a careful look at your trees. They are the greatest asset of your estate—while 
they live. Can you see any decayed spots? Are there any splitting crotches? Are 
any of the tops dying back from hunger or thirst or disease or insect attacks ? 
)on’t “put off” finding out. Trees are living things, and undergo a constant battle 
or life. For your own sake, make sure. A careful examination of your trees will 
e made by appointment. 
n caring for your priceless trees Davey Tree Surgeons place at your command the science, 
raining, and organised efficiency of a generation of conscientious work upon many thousands 
f America's fine estates. Illustrated booklet sent upon request.
