district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of five 10-gallon cans 
of cream at Sioux City, Iowa, alleging that the article had been shipped in 
interstate commerce, on or about October 29 and 30, 1934, in various ship- 
ments by Farmers' Union, Alpena, S. Dak.; W. Holtey, Virgil, S. Dak.; Mrs. 
Will Hellwig, Seneca, S. Dak.; H. E. Hallsted, Hay Springs, Nebr.; and Albert

of a decree, judgment was entered ordering that the product be destroyed.
