ery Co., from Lanesville, Ind.
PRODUCT: 45 30-pound cases and 36 30-pound cases of butter at Louisville,

LABEL IN PART :   "Autumn Leaf   Creamery Butter   *    *    *    1 LB. Net." 
NATURE OF CHARGE :   Adulteration, Section 402 (b) (2), (45-case lot) the article 
contained less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat.
Misbranding, Section 403 (a), the label statement "l Lb. Net" was false 
since the cartons did not contain 1 pound of butter; and, Section 403 (e) 
(2), the label failed to bear a correct statement of-the quantity of the contents.
DISPOSITION: June 25, 1945. The Lanesville Creamery Co. having appeared 
as claimant, judgments of condemnation were entered and the product was or- 
dered released under bond, conditioned that it be reworked and brought into 
compliance with the law, under the supervision of the Food and Drug Adminis- 
tration.
