AQUATIC PLANTS ARE PERMANENT 
_ Once you have a growth of aquatic plants estab- 
lished in those waters they will be permanent, re- 
producing for years to follow. The various kinds 
of aquatic plant life reproduce in different ways, by 
seeds, running roots and tubers, 
DO NOT FEAR CHOKING WATERS 
Most game food plants only grow in certain depths 
of waters. Those that will thrive in deeper waters 
grow submerged, the tops being several feet below 
the water’s surface. The worthless weeds are the 
undesirable species which are objectional and bother- 
some. 
PLANTING SEASONS 
In the Northern states, either Fall or Spring, 
warmer climates almost any season, Fall, Winter, 
Spring or Summer. 
Fall is that which we call Nature’s planting season, 
the time that many of these natural food plants 
reproduce and reseed themselves as they grow in 
their natural wild state, thus an excellent time for 
planting. A Fall planting will remain dormant in 
the soils over winter, starting growth in early Spring. 
Spring is also an excellent time to plant, it starts 
immediate growth and you will reap the benefit by 
next Fall in more ducks and better shooting. Same 
is true of the aquatic plant life for game fish, a Fall 
or Spring planting will aid the small fish during the 
following Summer and Fall. 
$10.00 PLANTS AN ACRE 
The average cost of sufficient materials to start 
an acre of aquatic plants is about Ten Dollars. Some 
kinds cost more and others less. However the first 
cost is the only cost, for they are perennials. It is 
not necessary or advisable to plant your entire water 
area, just start a growth in the desired place and 
it will spread in its proper water depth. 
MO%O)B) ISIS, sibalele (ale ible. 
Whether it be man or beast — migratory waterfowl, fish or game, all living creatures 
are directly or indirectly dependent upon vegetation for their existence. The beef or poul- 
try which you eat is in turn dependent upon the grains and grasses. The breads and cereals 
are products of grains and grasses. 
No living creature can long exist in the absence of food, nor can the grains and grasses 
exist in the absence of water. That life and the abundance of it that can survive on any 
given area is therefore dependent upon the water and food supply that exist there. 
WILD (JAP) MILLET 
(Echinochloa Crusgalli) 
ATTRACTS THE SHALLOW WATER DUCKS 
Also known as Goose Grass. Ranks almost as 
high as Wild Rice as a good Duck Coaxer in locali- 
ties where Wild Rice cannot be grown. Wild Millet 
grows to be 3 to 6 feet high and makes very good 
blinds as well as producing a large seed head with 
an abundance of food for the Wild Ducks. 
The Wild Millet is often erroneously called Wild 
Rice in Louisiana and other Gulf Coast States where 
it grows among the other tall marsh growth. 
WHEN AND WHERE TO PLANT 
Seed of the Wild Millet may be planted any time of 
year. It will grow to maturity in from 45 to 90 days 
depending on the climate. 
The Wild Millet grows best on damp lowlands and 
mud flats or along the banks of streams or lakes. It 
has done very well along river bottoms subject to 
overflow. On old rice field or lakes or ponds that 
are dry in summer and flooded in duck season are 
ideal. It grows best on a fairly fertile soil.

HOW TO PLANT 
It is well to break the soil where possible. One 
may use a drag, dise or grub hoe. Then sow the seed 
broadcast, after which drag or rake the planted area 
so as to cover the seed. 
On a wet, sticky soil one may simple broadcast the 
seed with good results, no need to work such soil. 
PHEASANTS 
The Wild Millet seed are often eaten by these up- 
land game birds as they frequent the lowland and 
marshes. 
Thirty pounds 
will plant one 
acre.
