MAKE CAREFUL SURVEY
Farmers whose livestock is injur-
ed or killed by dogs are urged by
the state bureau of animal indus-
try to make a thorough survey of
their premises before ralling upon
auditors to appraise damages.
Under the state dog law each
appraiser is paid $2 and allowed
mileage at the rate of 10 cents a
mile.
If it becomes necessary for an
auditor to make a second trip
there is no provision for additional
compensation except for mileage
allowance.
