[S B 67]
Approved March 12, 1938

1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia, That sec-
tion eighty of the Game, Inland Fish and Dog Code of Virginia, be
amended and re-enacted so as to read as follows:

Section 80. Disposition of Dog Fund—After paying the fifteen
per centum on gross collections to the State treasurer as otherwise
provided, the remaining amount in the dog fund of the county or
city shall first be used to pay: treatment of persons for rabies, ad-
vertising notices, freight and express or postage, and if the remainder
is sufficient, all damages to livestock or poultry and if the board of
supervisors desire it may make therefrom an allowance to the game
warden for services, and all allowances and payments heretofore made
by boards of supervisors to game wardens and ex-officio game wardens
for services are hereby validated. In the event the remainder is not
sufficient to pay such damages, the claims shall be filed and paid in
the order of presentation out of the first available money coming into
the fund. Any funds in excess of two hundred and fifty dollars re-
maining in the hands of the treasurer on December thirty-first may
on that date be transferred into the general fund of the county or
city, or, at the discretion of the board of supervisors or other governing
body of any county or city, any portion thereof may be transferred
into a special fund and used for the purpose of replenishing or re-
stocking quail or other game in such county or counties adjoining such
city.
