INFORMATION FILED : August 13, 1946, Western District of Wisconsin, against
Charles C. Craigo, trading as the C. C. Remedy Co., at La Valle, Wis.
ALLEGED SHIPMENT : On or about May 5 and July 5, 1945, from the State of
Wisconsin into the States of Minnesota and Iowa.
PRODUCT: One shipment of this product consisted essentially of water, formal-
dehyde, oil of wintergfeen, and not more than 7.5 percent of sulfanilamide.
The other shipment consisted essentially of mineral oil, formaldehyde, and not
more than 9.2 percent of sulfanilamide or sulfathiazole.
LABEL, IN PAST : "0. C. O. Formula * * * Sulfanilamide," "Triple C. C. C.
Formula   *    *    *    Sulphanilamide, or Sulfathiazole."
NATURE OF CHARGE: Misbranding, Section 502 (a), certain statements on the
label of the article and in circulars entitled "C. C. Remedy Company's Batter
Milk Program," accompanying a portion of the article, were false and mis-
leading. The statements in the labeling represented and suggested that the
article, when used as directed, would be efficacious in the treatment of garget
and mastitis in milch cows, whereas the article would not be efficacious for
such purpose. Further misbranding, Section 502 (a), the labeling was mislead-
ing since it represented and suggested that the article, when used as directed,
contained a significant therapeutic dosage of a sulfonamide, whereas the arti-
cle, when used as directed, did not contain a significant therapeutic dosage of a
sulfonamide.
DISPOSITION:   October 29, 1946.   A plea of nolo contendere having been entered,
the court imposed a fine of $50 on each of the 2 counts of the information.
