     (2) If a county uses a jury box for selection of jurors, the jury commissioner shall prepare and keep a jury box and contents as prescribed in this subsection. The number of each juror shall be written, typed, or stamped on a slip of paper or other suitable material, identical in all respects to the slips used for the other numbers. The slips shall be placed in a box of ample size to permit them to be thoroughly mixed. The box shall be plainly marked "jury box". The slips may be used as often as necessary, except that none may be used which is in any manner defaced or disfigured or so marked that it may be recognized or distinguished from the others in the jury box except by the number thereon. The box shall contain only one slip for each number corresponding to the number before the name of each juror on the jury list.
     (3) If a county uses a computer data base for selection of jurors, the jury commissioner shall cause the list of jurors prepared under the provisions of 3-15-402 to be entered into a computerized data base.
