Wisconsin, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 20 boxes of so-called 
"Longhorn Cheese", 6 boxes of "Dairy Cheese", 258 jars of "Shefford Pasteur- 
ized Limburger Processed Cheese", 130 packages of "Shefford Cheese Lim-

Blended with American", 5 boxes of so-called "Shefford Pasteurized Cream 
Cheese", 3 jars of mayonnaise, 18 packages of snappy cheese, 17 boxes of 
so-called "Kingan's Process Cheese American", and 3% wheels of domestic 
Swiss cheese, at Green Bay, Wis., alleging that the articles had been shipped 
in interstate commerce on or about March 22, 1936, by Kingan & Co., from 
Harrisburg, Pa., and that they were adulterated in violation of the Food and
