(F. & D. No. 22848.    I. S. No. 20315-x.    S. No. 858.)
On or about June 4, 1928, the United States attorney for the District of Dela- 
ware, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District 
Court of the United States for said district a libel praying seizure and condem- 
nation of 7 boxes of butter, remaining unsold at Dover, Del., alleging that the 
article had been shipped by the Orange Creamery Co., from Orange, Va., May 
31, 1928, and had been transported from the State of Virginia into the State of 
Delaware and charging misbranding in violation of the food and drugs act as 
amended. The article was labeled in part: " Monticello Dairy Butter made 
from selected and pasteurized cream, Charlottesville Virginia, One Pound, 
Monticello Dairy Butter."
It was alleged in the libel that the article was misbranded in that the state- 
ment on the label, " One Pound," was false and misleading and deceived and 
misled the purchaser.
On June 25, 1928, the Monticello Dairy, Inc., Charlottesville, Va., claimant, 
having consented to the entry of a decree, and having paid the costs and exe- 
cuted a good and sufficient bond with surety for the proper labeling of the 
product, judgment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was 
ordered by the court that the product be delivered to the said claimant.
