Like orders shall be adopted by the commission with respect to the recapitulations of all the remaining counties as they are received by the commission. The commission shall require its secretary to send by United States mail to the president of the board of supervisors a certified copy of the order adopted with reference to the recapitulation of assessment rolls of the respective counties.
