To the Kansas Stallion Owners

Your attention is especially called
to the following statements and pro-
visions of the stallion law:
1st No stallion can legally stand
for public service in Kansas without
State license issued by the Live
Stock Registry board.
End To procure State license the
owner must have the stallion exam
ined for soundness by an authorized
veterinarian If any owner does not
know who the authorized veterinar-
ian for his district is, he should
write to the Secretary of the Live
Stock Registry Board, at Manhattan,
for the information. Afr the stall
lion has been examined for sound
ness, the owner must send to the reg
istry board all pedigrees and other
papers bearing upon the breeding of
the stallion in question, or certi-
fed copy of the same, together with
a fee of 81 for issuing the State Ii
cense, as provided by law.
3rd Section 4 reads as follows:
issued by the owner of any stallion
enrolled under this act, or used by
him for advertising such stallion,
shall contain correct copy of its GER
tificate of enrolment"
The term certificate of enrolment
means the license issued by the regis
| try board.
4th Section reads as follows;
''The owner of any stallion standing
| for public service in this state shall
post and keep affixed during the en-
tire breeding season, copies of the Ii
cenSe certificate of each stallion, is
sued under the provisions of this act,
in conspicuous place upon the main
door leading into every stable or
building where the said stallion
islands for public service
/ 1G is very imp5rtant chat this sec
tion be strictly adhered to that the
mare owner may know what kind of
horse he is patroniZing.
5th Section reads as follows:
"Upon the transfer of the ownership
of any stallion enrolled under the
provisions of this act, the certificate
of enrolment may be transferred by
the State Live Stock Registry Board
upon Submittal of satisfactory proof
of such transfer and upon the pay
ment of a fee of fifty cents.
Parties buying stations that stood
| for public service in Kansas last year
should be sure to have such transfer
of ownership recorded in the books of
the registry board as required by law.
| When such transfer of ownership is
made, the new owner should send to
the registry board the old State Ii
cenSe and new one will be issued in
the name of the new owner. The
law provides fee of fifty cents for
making such transfer.
9Th Section 10 reads as follows:
''Any stallion standing for public ser
vice that is not a pure-bred and reg
iStered horse must have conspicuous
ly posted on the door of the stall in
which he is kept and in black type
not less than one inch in height a
statement that such stallion is a
grade or a croSS-bred, as the case may
be-
Owners of grade stations should
bear this in mind and act according
ly.
7th Stations that were examined
and licensed last year need not be re-
examined and re-licenSed again this
year.
The spirit of the law is that every
owner shall advertise his stallion for
exactly what it is. The law has been
in effect one year and stallion own
erS have had time to familiarize
themselves with its provisions.
The registry board is always ready
to render every possible assistance

as. Address all correspondence to
