demnation.    Product ordered distributed to charitable institutions.    (F.
D. C. No. 9467.   Sample No. 20165-F.)
On or about February 10, 1943, the United States attorney for the District 
of Rhode Island filed a libel against 4 cases, each containing 32 1-pound prints, 
of butter at Providence, R. I., alleging that the article had been shipped in 
interstate commerce on or about February 3, 1943, by the Cabot Farmers' Coop- 
erative Creamery Co. from Cabot, Vt; and charging that it was adulterated 
in that a product containing less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had 
been substituted for butter. The article was labeled in part: (Cartons) "Rose- 
dale Brand High Grade Vermont Creamery Butter."
On March 2, 1943, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered distributed to charitable institutions.
