Those taking part in the style show a ‘‘closeâ€"up‘‘ study of what is workâ€" ing in this great mind in the real inâ€" terest. and welfare of wild fowl, their haunts, and the people as a whole we may first sug@est that when ducks and geese temporarily stop on your waters and in your marshes and do not find the food they seek, they depart for better feeding grounds. But, if your areas are amply fooded they are with you to stay indefiintely.‘‘ â€" | main attraction. to all species is wild rice. The dependable yellow grain standing high above all other shorter growth lures the ducks and geese down. . However, while wild rice is the great enticement to an area canvasbacks, redheads, and bluebills immediately search for and deman wild celery. All â€"parts of the plant are eargerly sought and devoured, but the tender winterbuds and rootstocks are relished most. . Once celery is well established in your waters it will grow there permanently. There is no likelihood of the ducks destroying the growth for there are countless tubers which break off, remaining in the mud and many plants never molested which â€" will produce: the following ear. Being a submerged plant it is important food for fish life. Its supâ€" port of countless minute animal life is sought and relished by. young fry. This plant propagates in three ways, by seed, tunners and winterbuds, a sort of tuber. It is by planting these tubers during May and June that a quick and substantial growth of celery is obtained. It grows ‘best in waters from two to eight feet deep preferably in soft, or mud bottoms, although it will, grow on sandy loam or clay. The waters should be fairly fresh and pure. In planting, precauâ€" tions should be taken to provide clay balls fo the substance of putty. Taking ing a handfulâ€"of clay thus prepared, a ball about the size of a tennis ball is the result, and by breaking it in half and ‘placing two tubers between the halves then firmly pressed together you drop them into the waters about three to six feet apart . With wild rice, you may broadcast it. However, to prevent the ducks from pigking it up after it is sown, it would be better to place two seeds,oOf the short rice with one of the Kirge rice between two halves of clay about the sizge of a pea and drop them into the watersâ€"at intervals of two to four feet <tCGanada Geese and: Swans relish eel grass.
