Neglect did this
THIS tree looked sound as
healthy and flourishing as the
finest of yours. Its only apparent
defect was an insignificant-looking
crevice in the trunk. Of thi3
the owner thought nothing.
Then, one day, came a'storm
and sudden destruction! How was
theownertoknowthatthroughtiiat
little crevice he could have driven
a chisel to the haft in xottenwoodi
Only when too late was revealed
the full extent of internal hidden
decay. Again a healthy appearance
had masked a hollow, weakened
trunk; again neglect of a seeming
trifle had brought ruin.
Do you know the real condi
tion of YOUR trees? Are you
sure that the healthiest-looking of
them is not likewise on the verge
of premature death? You owe it
to yourself to find out now.
Examine your trees for these
danger signs
Are the leaves of any of your trees
yellowish and sickly-looking; are
they small or sparse in number and
inclined to curl; do they have a
tendency to turn brown along the
edges or elsewhere to fall prema
turely; are there any dead twigs,
particularly near the top? It ia
almost certain that these trees are
gradually dying from lack of water
or food or both.
Do any of your trees have V
shaped crotches? Are any of these
crotches starting to split apart?
Do any of them have dead limbs
or branches? Or decaying stub3
where limbs have been cut off ?
Are there any decaying spots on
the trunks or branches? Any de
caying holes, large or small?
If any of your trees reveal any
of these symptoms they are on the
road to certain premature death.
Only the expert services of zeal
