guilty.    Fine, $100.     (F. D. C. No. 6480.    Sample No. 56972-E.)
On April 28, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of North Dakota 
filed an information against Equity Union Creameries, Inc., Minot, N. Dak., 
alleging shipment on or about September 30,1941, from the State of North Dakota 
into the State of New York of a quantity of butter that was adulterated in that a 
valuable constituent, milk fat, had been in part omitted therefrom; and in that 
an article containing less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had been substi- 
tuted for butter. The article was labeled in part: "Distributed By Dairy & 
Poultry Co-Op, Inc.    *    *    *   New York." 
On June 2, 1942, a plea of guilty was entered on behalf of the defendant and 
the court imposed a fine of $100 and costs.
