Now that the season is approach•
ing when cattle must be cared for,
farmer's would do well to remember
the provisions regarding estrays.
The law requires that every person
who takes in a stray animal must
notify the township clerk of his mun-
icipality of the fact, in addition to ad-
vertising it, giving as minute a de-
scription of the animal as possible.
The clerk is required to keep a list of
such animals. Persons failing to
comply with these provisions of the
law snake themselves subject to a
heavy penalty, and, besides, cannot
collect expenses for keeping, etc.
