On or about December 23, 1926, the United States attorney for the District ?of Oregon, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District Court of the United States for said district a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 500 sacks of misbranded cottonseed cake, at Pilot Rock, Oreg., alleging that the article had been shipped by the Coleman Cotton Oil Mill, from Coleman, Tex., on or about December 6, 1926, and transported from the State of Texas into the State of Oregon, in violation of the food and drugs act. The article was labeled in part: "'Army' Brand Cotton Seed Cake And Meal * * * Guaranteed Analysis Protein, not less than 43% Louis Tobian & Co. Dallas, Texas.'* It was alleged in substance in the libel that the statement on the label, " Protein, not less than 43%," was in violation of section 8 of the act, general paragraph and paragraphs 2 and 4, in that the said statement was false and misleading and deceived and misled the purchaser. On December 27, 1926, Wood-Baxter & Co. having appeared as claimants for the property and having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product be released to the said claimants upon payment of the costs of the proceedings and the execution of a bond in the sum of $1,000, conditioned in part that it not be sold or otherwise disposed of until relabeled in a manner satisfactory to this department.
