such notice, it shall be lawful and it is hereby made the duty of such county
engineer on state and county roads and of such trustee on township roads and
mail route roads to respectively enter upon such property and open such
roads. If such notice is given between the March 1, and October 1, the notice

or for any injuries the lands or crops may sustain in consequence of the
making of such drains or ditches. The amount of such compensation shall be
determined, allowed and paid by the highway commissioners in event such
material is used upon a mail route or a township road, and determined,
allowed and paid by the board of county commissioners of the county when such
material is used upon a county or state road. Such claims shall be allowed
and paid in the same manner as other ordinary claims against the county or
township and the claimant shall have the same right of appeal as is now
provided by law in other cases.
