’ pneumonia exists among the herds in any county of this State, and believes there is 
danger of its spreading to other counties, he shail give notice of the existence of 
said contagion in a county by publication once a week in at least one newspaper

diseased to any other county of the State. He shall likewise notify in writing an 
agent of each transportation company doing business in said county, and warn said 
company from transporting any animals of the kind diseased from said county to | 
any other county in the State without a permit from an inspector of the Bureau of 
Animal Industry. All persons are hereby prohibited from driving or transporting 
by rail or water or vehicle of any kind, or offering for shipment, any animai of the 
kind diseased from any county in which contagious pleuro-pneumonia is declared to 
exist by the chief inspector of the Bureau of Animal Industry, in the manner 
herein provided, to any other county in the State; provided, however, that animals 
may be transported to other counties when a permit is given therefor by an inspector 
of the Bureau of Animal Indusiry.
