John Davey's

great
contribution
to America

John Davey was born in England, June 6,
1846, at a time when there were no public
schools. This hardy and humble genius was
twenty-one before he knew his A B C's. So
he started in as a full grown young man to
learn to read by the slow and painful process
of self-education. He began with a little copy
of the New Testament and a small dictionary,
picking out one word at a time. Later he
acquired a grammar so that he might put the
words together properly, meanwhile study-
ing horticulture and landscape gardening dur-
ing a full apprenticeship at Torquay, England.

Then he heard the call of America, this
great land of freedom and opportunity; and,
like millions of other sturdy sons of Europe,
he came here to work out his destiny. He pur-
sued his education still further, working by
day and studying by night, until he acquired
an education that would do credit to the
majority of college graduates.

Perhaps one of the most striking things
about him was the fact that he became one
of the finest Americans. He learned every
word of our Constitution. He learned every
word of every verse of America and the Star
Spangled Banner; and, until old age laid its
heavy hand upon him, he could sing those
songs with a zeal that was good to see.

He became a full citizen at the first oppor-
tunity under our law, and to him it was a
sacred day when he raised his right hand and

JOHN DAVEY, Father of Tree Surgery, "Do it right or not at all”

forswore allegiance to the British crown and
swore allegiance to the Constitution and the
flag of America. And always, during his
fifty years of life in his adopted country
whenever he passed by Old Glory, he would
tip his hat in veneration.

John Davey saw with eyes of understand-
ing the appalling neglect and butchery of
America's trees, and he set out to find a way
-a systematic, scientific way-to save them,
little dreaming that a great business would
be developed on the science that his love and
genius created. And thus came into being
the wonderful profession of Tree Surgery.

His first book, The Tree Doctor, was pub-
lished in 1901, and then began the gradual
development of The Davey Tree Expert Com-
pany, incorporated in 1909, doing a business

of nearly $2,000,000 in 1925, and now having
in the field nearly 700 master Tree Surgeons,
all carefully selected, thoroughly trained,
properly disciplined, and regularly super-
vised, and giving superior service to the tree
owners of America. For twenty years the
business of this institution has been managed
by his son, Martin L. Davey, whose highest
aim has been to perpetuate the ideals and
philosophy of his pioneer father.

John Davey, though not now living, still
lives in the spirit and purpose of the mag-
nificent service that he rendered his adopted
country-he taught the American people to
think in terms of the living tree. Greater
even than his creation of the invaluable
science of Tree Surgery is his contribution as
the apostle of the tree as a living thing.
