Section II. The removal of the quarantine guards' from Kalihi-wai 

 and Hanalei Bridge does not constitute a removal of the quarantine of 

 the infected district, except as hereinafter specified. 



Section III. All fenced and anthrax-infested pastures, enclosures or 

 premises remain quarantined in so far as the admission to them of un- 

 vaccinated animals is concerned, and such pastures, enclosures or premises 

 must be kept so fenced as to prevent absolutely entrance of stray live- 

 stock from adjoining highways and districts. 



Section IV. All gates opening on public roads or. non-infected prem- 

 ises shall be securely fastened and be provided with a sigh forbidding the 

 admission of unvaccinated live stock to anthrax-infected districts, and 

 stating the penalty for the violation of the rules and regulations gov- 

 erning the same. 



Section V. The Kalihi-kai and Kalihi-wai districts, and the public 

 highway leading from the latter to Hanalei bridge, shall be considered 

 free from anthrax infection and no longer quarantined after the date 

 these regulations become effective; but the local representative of this 

 Board shall reestablish such quarantine, in full or in part, whenever in 

 his opinion it becomes advisable. 



Section VI. The removal of the vaccinated live stock in the quaran- 

 tined district shall be in direct charge of the local representative of this 

 Board, who shall in each case decide upon and superintend the application 

 of such precautionary measures as he may deem requisite to prevent the 

 spread of infection. 



Section VII. It shall be the duty of any person to report without 

 delay to the local representative of this Board the sickness or death of 

 any animal in or near the infected district, as well as the presence of 

 any unvaccinated live stock in the quarantined area. 



Section VIII. It shall be unlawful for anyone, directly or indirectly, 

 to transfer or carry from any pasture, enclosure or premises, where an 

 animal has died from anthrax, or where deaths of animals have occurred 

 which might be attributed to anthrax, any soil, sod, earth, grasses, grass 

 seed, grass roots or any other substance which might possibly carry the 

 infection of anthrax. 



Section IX. These rules shall go into effect on August 26th, 1918. 



By direction of the Board of Agriculture and Forestry: 



VICTOR A. NOEGAARD, 



Territorial Veterinarian. 



Any violation of these rules is punishable by a fine not to exceed $500. 

 (Section 529, R. L. H. 1915.) 



In order to carr}^ out these regulations it became necessary 

 to have a sign painted for each gate — a total of sixteen. These 

 signs read as follows : 



ANTHRAX. KAPU. KEEP THIS GATE CLOSED. Any person 

 found trespassing on these anthrax-infected premises or admitting to 

 them unvaccinated live stock will be prosecuted to the full extent of the 

 law. Penalty not to exceed $500.00. 



By order of the Board of Agriculture and Forestry. 



Before dismissing the guards, Dr. Golding inspected all the 

 fences and took steps to have the defective places repaired. He 

 also attended to the placing of the signs and has secured the 

 services of a mounted patrol man. The few estrays that have 

 wandered in on the road have been returned to their owners 

 with instructions to keep them secured. Dr. Golding feels confi- 

 dent that the new arrangement will prove effective and much 

 more satisfactory to all concerned.
