Wild Rice Is To Docks 
What Candy Is 
To “Kids” 
Wild Rice ( Zizania aquatica ) is a 
favorite food of the marsh ducks, Mal¬ 
lards, Black Ducks, Pintails, Teal, etc. 
Thousands of them crowd into the 
Wild Rice marshes as drainage and civilization des¬ 
troy their old haunts. The plants grow quite high 
supplying cover and nesting places, as well as food, 
for the ducks. It is also a good Muskrat food. 
Wild Rice grows in slow-running, fresh water 
streams, lakes, ponds or marshes having a perma¬ 
nent outlet. It should be planted on mud bottom 
in sunny, sheltered bays in from 6 inches to 3 feet 
of water. Wild Rice does best north of a line drawn 
from San Francisco, Calif., to Savannah, Ga., al¬ 
though it has been grown in Louisiana and Alabama.

Wild Celery is “The Staff of 
Life” for Canvasbacks 
Canvasbacks, Redheads and Bluebills feed on 
Wild Celery ( Vallisneria spirals ) in preference to 
other foods. Scientists call the Canvasbacks, 
Ay thy a vallisneria , which means “duck that feeds 
on Wild Celery,” Vallisneria being the scientific 
name for the Wild Celery plant. Other ducks which 
feed on Wild Celery include the wood duck, wid¬ 
geon, pintail, ruddy, bufflehead, whistler, teal, 
scoters, mallard and black duck. Geese, swans and 
coots also eat it. 
Good Fish Pasture 
Wild Celery is an ideal fish food and cover pro¬ 
ducer. It insures more and bigger fish. It helps 
purify the water. 
Wild Celery thrives in fresh or slightly brackish 
waters, in sheltered bays, 2 to 8 feet deep. Thrives 
in practically all parts of U. S. and Canada. Easily 
grown from Terrell’s selected winter-buds or plants
