Decoys Alone 
Won’t Bring Ducks 
Would you like to have duck hunting like the 
old-timers tell about? Would you like to have 
hundreds and thousands of waterfowl come to 
your favorite waters every fall? 
If you do, restore what brought the ducks in 
the good ol’ days—feeding grounds. Decoys alone 
won’t bring ducks. But natural aquatie foods 
will. Ducks are gluttonous feeders, and will fly 
hundreds of miles to find abundant food. Wild 
ducks cannot live upon waters without food and 
therefore migrate on to the places where they 
find plenty of the kind of food they like. 
In waters where their natural food does not 
grow now, it can very easily be planted and the 
waters made attractive to the wild waterfowl. 
There are important food plants for these wild 
waterfowl which will grow under almost every 
water condition that exists. 
The future of your duck hunting rests in your 
own hands. You will provide food and nature will 
provide the ducks. There are plenty of water- 
fowl in the country, but they are found in great 
numbers only where there is sufficient vegeta¬ 
tion for them to feed. 
Now is the proper time to plant aquatic foods. 
By next Fall the plants will be full grown. Year 
after year they will reseed themselves and remain 
a permanent attraction in your waters.
