On June 22, 1936, the United States attorney for the District of Colorado, 
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court 
a libel praying seizure and condemnation of nine cans of cream at Trinidad, 
Colo., alleging that the article had been shipped in various shipments in inter- 
state commerce on or about June 18,1936, by Louis Olson, from Hereford, Tex.; 
Joe Friemel, from Canyon, Tex.; J. B. Lepe, from Canyon, Tex.; A. B. Briggs,

from Childress, Tex.; S. H. Garrison, from Idalow, Tex.; G. A. Bagley, from 
Seminole, Tex.; and A. J. Mattock, from Southland, Tex., and charging adultera- 
tion in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or 
in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid animal substance.
On or about June 24, 1936, the Trinidad Creamery Co., Trinidad, Colo., the 
consignee, having filed a statement confessing the allegations of the libel and 
having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment was entered ordering that 
the product be destroyed.
