butter at New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped on or about 
June 8, 1941, by Lonsdale Creamery Co., Lonsdale, Minn., from Mapletbn, Minn.; 
and charging that it was adulterated and misbranded. It was labeled in part t 
"Butter Distributed By Hunter, Walter & Co,   *    *   *   New York, N. Y." .

tions of the libel, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was
