ATTRACTING FISH AND FOWL 
re By 
_ Clyde B. Terrell 
You, who would increase your waterfowl or 
fish population, should study the ways and the 
habits of these wild creatures, and provide them 
with what they desire and need. Regardless of 
whether it be waterfowl. fish, muskrats, or some 
other form of wild life. furnish them what they 
want if you wish to attract them, induce them to 
stay a while and rear large families. Most wild 
creatures are creatures of instinct. and it is dif- 
ficult to change their desires and habits. 
Primarily, in attracting and increasing the sup- 
ply of wildlife we should constantly supply them 
with Food, Protection, and Suitable Homes. 
PROVIDE FOOD at all times of the year when 
these wild creatures are with you. How hard it 
would be for you to go for even a week without 
food] Plan to have some kind of food available 
for our finned, feathered and furred friends. every 
week out of the fifty-two weeks in the year. In 
our gardens we do not have strawberries all the 
_year around, and just so a good duck food like 
Wild Rice does not furnish food throughout the 
entire year, but must be supplemented througb- 
out the summer months, when no seeds of Wild 
Rice are present, by other duck foods like Duck’s 
Meat (Spirodela); the grain-like seeds of pond- 
weeds (Potamogeton); the succulent runners and 
- winter-buds of the Wild Celery (Vallisneria), and 
ry other wean described herein.

PROTECTION is needed by every type of 
wildlife and fish from its enemies, severe weath- 
er and other climatic conditions. It is well-known 
that wateriowl select islands and elevated sit- 
uations for their nests, where they will be safe 
from cats, foxes and other vermin. Wild ducks 
often build their nests under a pile of loose 
brush, covered with a tangle of wild grapes or 
other vines, where they will be safe from the 
pouncing attacks of great-horned owls and other 
winged enemies. 
Small fish seek the shelter of submerged water 
plants to escape from cannibalistic relatives. 
These same plants produce food in the form of 
snails, crawlish, fresh-water shrimp, dragon flies 
and other small forms of aquatic animal life on 
which fish feed. 
See information given in the following pages. 
as to conditions under which these plants grow.
