For the purposes hereinbefore set forth the Board shall cause to

be made by inspectors appointed for that purpose, as hereinafter

provided, a postmortem examination and inspection of the carcasses

and parts thereof of all cattle, bison, sheep, swine, goats, horses,

mules, and other equines, capable of use as human food, to be

prepared at any slaughtering, meat-canning, salting, packing,

rendering, or similar establishment in this state in which such

articles are prepared for intrastate commerce; and the carcasses and

parts thereof of all such animals found to be not adulterated shall

be marked, stamped, tagged, or labeled, as "Inspected and Passed";

and said inspectors shall label, mark, stamp, or tag, as "Inspected

and Condemned", all carcasses and parts thereof of animals found to

be adulterated; and all carcasses and parts thereof thus inspected

and condemned shall be destroyed for food purposes by the said

establishment in the presence of an inspector, and the Board may

remove inspectors from any such establishment which fails to so

destroy any such condemned carcass or part thereof, and said

inspectors, after said first inspection, shall, when they deem it

necessary, reinspect said carcasses or parts thereof to determine

whether, since the first inspection, the same have become

adulterated and if any carcass or any part thereof shall, upon

examination and inspection subsequent to the first examination and

inspection, be found to be adulterated, it shall be destroyed for

food purposes by the said establishment in the presence of an

inspector, and the Board may remove inspectors from any

establishment which fails to destroy any such condemned carcass or

part thereof.
