LIFE .- What is this tree worth? It was saved by Davey Tree Surgeons Doomed by decay— now a perfect tree Eight years ago the trunk of this tree was a weak, decaying shell. It could have crashed to pieces in any hard storm; as it then stood it was doomed. Very much as a dentist treats a tooth the decay was removed and the cavity sterilized. The weakened shell was strength- ened by mechanical braces; the cavity was filled with cement by the Davey sectional method, which permits swaying with- out breaking. New bark has grown complete- ly over the cement filling, today this tree is perfect—saved by the amazing skill of Davey Tree Surgeons. Davey Tree Surgeons are local to you—anywhere between Boston and Kansas City, be- tween Canada and the Gulf. Write or wire Kent, Ohio.
