From The Indianapolis Star, Thursday, August 3, 1916: The proposed codification of the city ordinances before the Indianapolis city council has a section making the molestation of any birds, their nests, eggs or young punishable by a fine up to $10 (2015: $220). Earlier, the council passed a provision that no person shall be allowed to keep more than one cow, with the consent of the city board of health and the payment of a $1 (2015: $22) license fee, within the city limits. Also, swine may not be kept within the city at all; there is a fine up to $20 (2015: $440) for violation of this section. It will also be unlawful to bury a dog, hog, cow or horse within the city. Arrangements must be made to dispose of the animal with the city approved company.
