Attract More Ducks 
And Fish With 
Terrell's Sure-Growing 
Giant Wild Rice 
Where Wild Rice grows you are sure to find 
wild ducks swarming in to feed on this large 
nutritious grain. It is the best known and most 
important food for Mallards, Black Ducks, Widg¬ 
eons, Teal, Pintails, Canada Geese and other 
wildfowl. Wild Rice beds are also used by the 
ducks in the spring as a place to hide their 
nests and rear their ducklings. 
U. S. Biological Survey Bulletin No. 21 reports 
Wild Rice to be eaten by Quail and says, it also 
furnishes desirable cover for them. Muskellonge, 
Black Bass and other fish hang around Wild 
Rice beds. It shelters and saves thousands of 
baby fish. Wild rice reseeds itself from year to 
year making a permanent feeding ground. 
Where To Plant 
Terrell's Giant Wild Rice is easy to grow. There 
are many places throughout the northern and 
southeastern U. S. and Canada where it does 
not now grow, where conditions are favorable 
for growing it. Briefly stated the conditions re¬ 
quired for successful growth of Wild Rice are 
fresh water streams, lakes or ponds having an 
outlet, fairly rich bottom, and water from 6 inches 
to 3 feet in depth. Sunny, sheltered bays or 
coves where planting will not get the full current 
or direct wash of waves, suit it best. Wild Rice 
thrives in slightly hard water as is com¬ 
monly found in marshes, or in moderately 
alkaline waters containing lime or marl. It 
grows best north of a line drawn from Savan¬ 
nah, Georgia, to San Francisco, California, al- 
thoucjht occasionally grown further south.
