NATURALISTS ARE CONTINUALLY 
AMAZED 
THE DIFFERENT BEAKS shown here are specially 
adapted for different ways of feeding, scooping, tearing, 
digging and pulling. 
They illustrate why naturalists are continually 
amazed at the number of ingenious ways in which 
Nature helps her children solve the problem of food. 
Migratory waterfowl also have that which we might 
term as a telescopic vision, very keen. While winging 
their way over a body of water they can observe the 
kinds of food which grow beneath the water’s surface. 
Where they find a variety of the foods they like to 
eat, large numbers will stop and they will stay as long 
as the food supply will last or the season will permit. 
WILSON SNIPE 
HELP NATURE 
Nature is slow in her process of distribution of aquatic seeds. 
It sometimes takes years upon years for Nature to spread the 
seeds of Natural WILD DUCK FOODS over a large area and 
from lake to lake. Seeds must drift with the current, birds must 
carry undigested seeds OR perhaps one may stick to the feet 
of some species of waterfowl and thus be conveyed to another 
lake or pond. 
Fortunately these seeds can be purchased and planted by man, 
often accomplishing in ONE YEAR that which may take Nature 
a hundred years to do. 
GOOD Feeding Grounds for our supply of wild ducks are 
inadequate to provide for the supply of birds. They migrate 
thousands of miles in search of food, even into the most remote 
places. It’s no trick to coax the wild ducks to your Favorite 
Shooting Place—simply plant a variety of the kinds of food 
they like and will continually search for.
