rental reserved in his lease at or prior to the time of payment 

 therein specified, during the term of such lease or during such 

 part thereof as the board in its discretion shall require to be 

 covered by such bond; and in case only a part of the term of 

 such lease shall be covered thereby, said board shall require of 

 such lessee another like bond, to be executed and delivered within 

 three months and not less than one month prior to the expiration 

 of the period covered by the previous bond, covering the re- 

 mainder of the term of the lease, or such part thereof as the 

 board in its discretion shall require to be covered thereby. The 

 board shall have power at any time to summon sureties upon any 

 bond and to examine into the sufficiency thereof, and if it shall 

 find the same to be insufficient it shall require the lessee to file a 

 new and sufficient bond within thirty days after receiving notice 

 so to do, under penalty of cancellation of the lease; and the 

 board shall have power to cancel any lease for a substantial 

 breach by the lessee of any of the conditions thereof, or for lack 

 of a bond therewith as herein required. (Laws '97, p. 255, sec.
