FI,OCK or" OUAIL AT A FOOD STATION 



"In bad weather, however, particularly in the North, where we are so apt to be covered 

 up with snow, more artificial means of feeding should be resorted to, and food stations, 

 food-houses, and food shelters of various sorts should be established in proper places. If 

 quail or grouse are to be fed, inconspicuous bough shelters may be built in protected places 

 among the fields or woorls most frequented by them" (see page 331).

 North, and with its rich crimson head and breast makes a pretty picture in the snow.
