when due are not paid within 10 days after demand therefor,
such person, keeper, owner, operator, proprietor or trainer
is authorized, on giving 10 days' notice of the time and place
of such sale, by advertisement in some newspaper published

of the sale and advertising and the balance, if any, he shall
pay over to the owner of such stock.

or grazing purposes.
(b) For the enforcement of such lien, the owners of such land,

court having jurisdiction of the amount claimed, leviable
upon the stock upon which the lien exists

removed any part of such stock from such land without the
consent of the landlord without paying the rent, or if the
claim has been assigned without the consent of the assignees;
(3) Whether such claim is due or not, when the plaintiff has
good cause to believe that the defendant is about to remove
any part of such stock from the land without paying the rent
and without the consent of the owner of such land or the assignee,
if the claim has been assigned.
