GOOD MUSKRAT FOODS

can raise on your marsh or 
waters depends on the food

in numbers as far as the food 
The Muskrat supply permits, but no farther.

rat pasturage and you may 
‘ find fences, to retain them, unnecessary -- in fact, 
muskrats from other marshes will be attracted by 
the food on your marsh. 
The following plants are the mainstay of the 
muskrat’s food supply the year around. They

GET MORE AND BIGGER FISH 
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.
