His information from Reed S. Hanson. assistane poultryman at the Experiment station, dds that wood shavings, the traditionally favorite nesting material, do not always men:rare up to satisfactory standards. Shavings that contain some cedar simw a tendency to stain white-shelled eggs, Some shav- ings are so fine that they con- tain large quantities of almost sawdust-like particles. These small particles tend to stick to the eggs, which means additional work in cleaning the eggs before they are marketed. On the other hand, excelsior has been a consistent top performer as a nesting material. When poul- trymen are having difficulty se- curing the right quality of shav- ings for nesting material they will find a change to excelsior profitable, the research man added.
