of the Board (Nov. 2) the following has been posted conspicu-

Road: 
BOARD OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY. 
Division of Animal Industry. 
NOTICE. 
A charge of 25c per head per day will be levied on all horse stock 
or other large animals, and lUc per head per day for smaller animals 
(sheep, swine, goats, etc.) left on the premises of the animal quarantine 
station beyond the required quarantine period, or for non-quarantinable 
stock sent to the station for keep, detenti'on or observation, except when 
so ordered by the Board or by the officers of the Division of Animal 
Industry. 
The Board reserves the right to remit such charges, when, in its 
opinion, the detention of animals was either unavoidable or required for 
the interest of the service. 
All damages to the fences, posts, gates, chutes, feed racks, mangers, 
buildings or any other part of the premises, due to the carelessness or 
negligence 'on the part of the owners, agents, consignees, or their em- 
ployees, will be charged against the stock and must be settled for before 
the animals are allowed to leave the station. The same applies to ac- 
crued charges for keep or detention as above specified.

vertised. The Board's instructions in regard thereto are re- 
spectfully awaited.

animals, revived the question of reconstructing the stallion boxes 
at the quarantine station so as to make them safe for the housing 
of such expensive animals. It will be remembered that the sum
