Default decree of destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 17195.   Sample No. 18687-H.)
LIBEL FILED:   August 28,1945, District of Minnesota.
ALLEGED SHIPMENT: On or about July 5,1945, from La Valle, Wis., by the O. O.
Garget Remedy Co.
PRODUCT: 10 bottles of C. G. O. Formula at Stillwater, Minn. Analysis showed
that the product consisted essentially of water, formaldehyde, oil of winter-
green, and not more than 7.5 percent of sulfanilamide.
NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 502 (a), the following label state-
ments were false and misleading since the article, when used as directed, would
not be effective in the treatment of garget or mastitis of milch cows: "Tripple
'C Formula has been successfully used by Thousands of Farmers who have
Garget or Mastitis in their Milch Cows. 95? of cases Cleared up. * * ? *
In severe cases where cow doesn't eat, drench with two tablespoonsful in pint
of sweet milk three times daily, till cow gets back on .feed. Treat at least
ten days. In cases where udder is swollen before freshening, milk out twice
daily and give remedy."
Further misbranding, Section 502 (a),, the label statement, "Formula
* * * Sulphanilamide," was misleading since it created the impression that
the article, when used as directed, would supply a therapeutically useful dosage
of sulfanilamide, whereas the article, when used as .directed, would not supply
a therapeutically useful dosage of sulfanilamide.
DISPOSITION: October 17, 1945. No claimant having appeared, judgment was
entered ordering that the product be destroyed.
