     7  sale of the vehicle. Motor vehicles, other than motor vehicles  manufac-
     8  tured  and  equipped  primarily  for  the  transportation of passengers,
     9  trailers and semitrailers, to be operated by any person, upon  a  public

    13  in an attachment to the vehicle registration, (a) between fields, build-

     5  first receipt, from its point of sale to a farm, may  be  registered  as
     6  provided  in this subdivision. Every owner of such vehicles may cause to
     7  be filed by mail or otherwise, with the commissioner or with  any  agent
     8  of  the  commissioner,  an application for registration of such vehicle,
     9  addressed to the commissioner, and on a blank to  be  furnished  by  the
    10  commissioner  for  that  purpose, containing the information required by
    11  subdivision one of this  section  and  such  other  information  as  the
    12  commissioner  shall  require.  The commissioner or agent shall make such
    13  investigation, as he or she shall determine necessary, and if  satisfied
    14  that  the  vehicle  is  to  be  operated exclusively as provided in this
    15  subdivision shall, upon the payment of a fee of one  dollar,  assign  to
    16  such vehicle a distinctive number and issue and deliver to the applicant

    18  the  commissioner  shall  prescribe,  indicating the extent to which the
    19  vehicle registered may be operated on the public highways and such vehi-

    32  vision made by section one of this act.
