GET MORE AND BIGGER FISH 
Provide Food and Cover 
"We may stock our fish waters ever so liber¬ 
ally. but the fish will not thrive without an 
abundance of suitable food." — Editorial from 
"American Field.” 
Certain plants provide plenty of food, also 
cover where small fish can escape from their 
enemies. They insure more young fish reaching 
maturity and increase fish production. Fish feed 
on parts of the plants and on the countless num¬ 
bers of small insect and animal life which these 
plants support. 
The following are excel¬ 
lent food and cover pro¬ 
ducing plants for fish: 
Coontail, Ducks Meat, 
Pickerel Plant, Sago Pond 
Plant, Water Cress, Water 
Lilies, Water Milfoil, 
Water Shield. Wild Cel¬ 
ery, Wild Rice. 
Plants mentioned above are 
described and prices 
given on inside pages.

OTHERS SAY; 
"The Wild Duck Millet is the best food here. The 
Wapato Duck Potatoes did fine and we now have plenty 
of them. There could never be a better duck food than 
Wild Duck Millet, - the Mallards are wild for this food, 
and Teal could hardly be driven out. It is a pretty sight 
after the Millet headed out to see the Mallards as thick 
as can be in the Millet."—Central Illinois.

The Wild Rice shown in the foreground was planted in

had a wonderful stand of Wild Rice . . 71/2 ft* high. We
