DESCRIPTION OF FEEDTNG STATION 
The station described here is one of the smaller ones. We 
exoerienced greater success with these because less corn stalks 
were needed (of which we had very few), they held snow out better 
and were much easier to construct. 
e tried to cnstruct most of these in places where they 
would not be "torn down" during the summer, and in places afford-

ing them best shelter from the wind, etc. 
This narticular tvte of station was built just high enough 
to afford orotectlon for the hopper and built on the order of a 
"lean-to"; were from 4 to 5 ft. high, and were deer enoigh so 
that the hooper sat well back with the station; and were about 
10 ft. wide.  They faced the south or southeast so they received 
all the sunlight oosqible. A pole was placed on the outer side 
of the stalks and fastened to each end of the station and thereby 
held the stalks in place. In the surrounding territory we placed 
brush oiles to afford added protection and roosting places for 
the quail. 
Quite a little trouble was experienced with rabbits tearing 
down the corn stalks.
