sale shall on or before January first of each year file with the
commissioner of revenue of this city a certificate in duplicate

revenue shall endorse on one copy of such certificate the fact and
date of its filing, and shall deliver such copy to the applicant, and
such applicant shall thereafter at all times while he is engaged in
peddling within this city, have such copy in his possession and

this chapter, exhibit such certificate. The commissioner of
revenue may administer the oaths required by this subsection.

(4) Any officer charged with the enforcement of this chapter

affidavit in support of any claim made by such peddler that the
produce then in or on his vehicle was grown or produced by
him.

(5) The word "peddler" or "peddlers," as used in this subsection
shall be construed as including their bona fide employees.

(6) Any peddler failing to exhibit such certificate in violation of

department of parks and recreation a producer's certificate,
pursuant to the provisions of this section for sales at the city
market and at no other place. Such certificate may include farm
produce, food stuffs, art work or handicrafts grown or produced
by the seller, members of his family or farm laborers employed
