The Department of Agriculture may pay out of the funds appropriated by the General Assembly of the State one half of the difference between the appraised value and the salvage of all cattle that may be condemned for Bang's disease by the Department or a veterinarian of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry working in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture. All cattle which are condemned for Bang's disease shall be appraised in a manner prescribed by the Department of Agriculture. No payment as compensation for any animal with Bang's disease destroyed shall exceed two thirds of the difference between the appraised value of such animal and the value of the salvage thereof. In no case shall any payment hereunder be more than $125 for any grade animal or more than $150 for any purebred animal, and no payment shall be made unless the owner has complied with all lawful quarantine regulations.
