To increasc yield, modern agricultural practices have made the hedgerow and its associated wildlife obsolete. Loss of habitat is the most important single factor for a reuction in numbers of wild- life. " In the face of such environ- mental pressures the obvious question is "What can I do as an individual to case the encroachment on our wildlifc resources?" Each indîvidual, througb varying degrees, of effort and expense, can in a sînaîl but important way, take steps to provide habitat by developing on bis own proper- ty the habitat requirements which help to maintain or increase wildlife populations. The Ministry of- Natural Resources has recently pub- lisheti a bookiet entitled, "BEackyard Habitat" by Ger- aid B. M'cKeating.,and W*iliam- A. Creighton. This, colour- illustmated publication demon- strates how a property owner cani provide quality wildlifc habitat to attract such species as songbirds and small main- mals and at the same time beautîfy his background. It reviews food and cover re- quiements of varlous species and deals with such topics as Planning Preparation and Care and hat to Plant.
