‘^All Together-Heave” 
“This world has never known a country equal to 
ours in size, having greater natural beauty of con¬ 
formation, diversity of scenery and wealth of animal 
and plant life. 
.... “Only as a day in the evolution of the world 
is 300 years, and after this length of time, ive, today, 
are called upon to answer for our stewardship of 
plethora of riches and beauties. We have handled 
these natural wonders, this profusion of riches in a 
spirit of insane recklessness. 
.... “Today we are squarely facing the problem 
of reparation for we must make reparation or we 
must meet disaster. There is no question of whether 
we will or not, we must as a matter of protec¬ 
tion. 
.... “We must save every brook and stream 
and lake. 
.... “We must save the natural resources which 
remain to us. 
.... “If we desire comfort, food and beauty for 
ourselves and any sort of a heritage at all to be¬ 
queath to our children each of us must lend a hand. 
Those of us who see the vision and most keenly feel 
the need, must furnish the motive power for those 
less responsive. 
.... “It is time for all of us to get together and 
in unison make a test of our strength. 
.... “One man could not do this work nor could 
two or three but working in unison for the same 
purpose many men could do it. 
“All together—Heave.”

A practical game restoration program. In the 
following pages of this booklet are given sugges¬ 
tions and helpful ideas derived thru years of ex¬ 
perience by specialists on the development of attrac¬ 
tive places for Waterfowl, Fish, Muskrats and Up¬ 
land Game Birds. How to propagate natural food 
and cover plants thereby improving the Hunting on 
both land and waters and better the Fishing in 
nonds and streams. 
Like the Indians of old 
who wandered over prairie, 
mountain and stream in 
search of food to the better 
hunting grounds, so do the 
wild life migrate in search 
of the kinds of foods they 
like. Similar to the hu¬ 
man being, they like a change of diet, or a variety 
of foods, some species of wild life prefer certain 
foods more than others as the Mallard Duck searches 
for the Wild Rice so does the Canvas-back Duck 
scan the water for Wild Celery. Again in compar¬ 
ison, as the people populate the rich lands of Illinois 
near the great blue waters of Lake Michigan, 
against, the sandy deserts of Arizona. Why? Be¬ 
cause in the land of prosperity they find content¬ 
ment, plenty of food, shelter and enjoyment with the 
least exertion. It’s the same with wild waterfowl, 
fish or game. Great numbers will congregate where 
they find a plenty of their favorite foods, good cover, 
greater protection and the easier feeding conditions.
