 and the name and residence of the person by whom he 

 was bred, and shall cause the certificate to be recorded 

 by the secretary of the Board of Agriculture. He shall 

 also insert a copy of the certificate in all ^posters and 

 notices advertising the stallion, and shall give" a copy of it

 lioner a preferred lien on the colt until it is eight months 

 old, and colt may be attached at any time after it is four 

 months old.
