same. If the person so notitied shall refuse or fail to abate said nui- 
sance in the manner and within the time prescribed in said notice, the 
State Entomologist may cause such nuisance to be abated, and he 
shall certify to the owner or person in charge of the premises the cost 
of abatement, and if not paid to him within sixty days thereafter the 
same may be recovered, together with the cost of action, before any 
court in the State having competent jurisdiction. In case the notice 
and order served as aforesaid shall direct that any growing plant, 
shrub, or tree, shall be destroyed, and the owner or grower of such 
plant, shrub, or tree, shall consider himself aggrieved by such order, 
he shall have the privilege of appeal, within three days of the receipt 
of the notice, to the county court of the county in which said property 
is situated. The appeal shall be made in like manner as appeals are 
taken to the county court from the judgments of justices of the peace, 
Written notice of such appeal served by mail upon the State Ento- 
mologist shall operate to stay all proceedings until the decision of the 
county court; who may, after investigating the matter, reverse, mod- 
ify, or confirm the order of the State Entomologist. Such decision 
shall then become the order of tlic State Entomologist, who shall serve 
the same as hereinbefore set forth, and shall fix a time within which 
such decision must be carried out. Any person, firm, or corpora- 
tion failing to obey an order of the State Entomologist, made and 
served as prescribed in this section, within the period of time therein 
specified, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and liable to pun- 
ishment as prescribed in section 5 of this Act. 
§ 3. Whenever any trees, shrubs, plants or vines are shipped 
from place to ])lace in this State, or shipped into this State from 
another state, country or province, every car, box, bale, bundle, pack- 
age or piece thereof shall be plainly labeled on the outside with the 
name of the consignor, the name of the consignee, and a certificate 
signed by a state or government inspector showing that the contents 
have been inspected by such inspector, or by his authority since the 
first day of July last preceding, and that the trees, vines, shrubs, and 
]ilants, there present and therein contained, appear free from all dan- 
gerous insects and diseases. Whenever any trees, shrubs, vines, or 
plants arrive in this State without such certificate plainly fixed on the 
outside of the package, box or car containing the same, the facts must 
be reported within twenty-four hours to the State Entomologist by the 
railroad, express or steamboat company, or other person or persons 
carrying the same, and it shall be unlawful to deliver any such prop- 
erty until it has been inspected by the State Entomologist or his as- 
sistant and by him certified to be free from dangerous insects or con- 
tagious diseases. Any person receiving nursery stock brought into 
this State from outside this State, and not accompanied by a valid 
certificate as above prescribed, shall at once notify the State Entomol- 
ogist of that fact, and shall not allow such uncertified stock to leave 
his possession until it has been inspected and released by the State 
Entomologist or his assistant. Any agent of any railroad, steamboat 
or express company or any other person or persons carrying such
