Agriculture Canada is studying shredded, used paper as a possible cattle bedding material.- The study began when a company asked the 'government to cheek the shredded paper it Was ball ng for possible sale to farmers. , ','We k'now that animals in loose housing eat about five to 10 pet...cent. of their bedding," says . Dr. Louis Laflamme of •• Agriculture Canada's feed- and fertilizer. section here. "Ruminant animals Such as cattle and sheep can digest about 30 per cent of the newspaper they cat. Any harmful material in the bedding could get into the food chain and possibly affect people." • Shredded paper was analyzed for the presence of salt, sulphur, heavy metals (arsenic. mercury, lead, chromium and cadmium), and for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) once used ,in glues and inks, but now banned. "Paper is essentially wood fibre and. is' hartdess," Dr. Laflatn -..ie says. "But inks, glues, fillers and caotings could Contain dangerous , substances. Newspapers have up to five parts per million of lead, piPked up from metal printing plates. Analyses of newspapers from a major Canadian city proved them safe for animal bedding. Therefore, Dr. Laflamme says the use of newspapers as a replace- ment straw or shavings' for bedding seems to be safe. Colored glossy paper such as that found in magazines is being researched by Agriculture Canada. It •now is known that , glossy papers -- especially those printed with yelloW inks have' • higher lead levels 'than newspaper and should not be used as bedding for livestock. • Every week more and more people discover what mighty jobs are accomplished by low cost Huroh Expositor Want Ads.
