Washington, July 9.— The Heyburu
36-hour livestock bill became a law
June 29, when it was signed by the
president. Since that time the depart
ment of Agriculture, which is charged
with the administration of the new
statute, has made preparation to issue
permits to all shippers of livestock who
care to avail themselves of its more
liberal terms.
The permits to n ake
shipments for (isrioda longer than 26
hours can only be made by authority of
the secretary of agriculture, and those
not obtaining such permits w l l be re
quired to conform to the old law.
The Heyburn law, of course, applies
only to livestock shipped in cars that
have no facilities for feeding in transit,
s nd which are so crowded as to deprive
the stock of rest while on the rail.
8tock that is shipped in the more mod
ern cars, and which is regularly fed
and watered on the cars, is not affected
by the law.
The bill in its approved form pro
hibits any railroad from transporting
livestock from one state to another for
a period longer than 26 comecative
hours without unloading the safne into
properly equipped pens for rest, feeding
and water, and it is stipulated that
these stopping periods shall be at least
five hours iu duration.
In case of
storms or on sccount of other unfavor
able circumstances, shipments may be
prolonged beyond the 26-hour period
without authority from the department.
