§ 693. System for inspection and registration; forms; internal revenue stamps

The Secretary of Health is hereby directed to organize a system for the inspection and registration of such animals as the owners or possessors thereof may desire to have inspected and registered. Said system shall provide for the use of a form calling for a description of the animals in such a way that they can be plainly identified from such description, and statements regarding the health and condition of the animals, and such other data as may be deemed necessary. In all cases where an animal is inspected for purposes of registration two (2) copies of this form shall be filled out, one copy of which shall be given to the owner or possessor of the animal registered, and the other shall be forwarded to the Secretary of Health, for filing in his office. Before delivery of the form to the owner or possessor of the animal, such owner or possessor shall purchase, affix to said form and cancel, internal revenue stamps to the value of twenty-five cents (25¢). Said stamps shall be affixed and cancelled in such manner as the Secretary of Health shall determine.
