LABEL IN PART:    (Tags) "Blue Cow 16% Feed," or "Prize Winner Hog Feed,"
VIOLATIONS CHARGED: Misbranding, Section 403 (a), the statements in the 
labeling of the products, (cow feed) "Guaranteed Analysis Crude Protein, not 
less than 16.0Q % Crude Fat, not less than 3.00 % [or "3.50 %"]," and (hog feed) 
"Guaranteed Analysis Crude Protein, not less than 14% Crude Fat, not less 
than 3%%," were false and misleading since the cow feed contained in one 
shipment not more than ^3>ilftwpjercent of crude protein and 1.99 percent of 
crude fat, and in the other shipment not more than 13.04 percent of crude 
protein and 2,11 percent of crude fat; and the hog feed contained not more than 
11.85 percent of crude protein and 2.71 percent of crude fat; in addition, the 
statements  (portion of cow feed)   "Made  From    *    *    *    Ground Barley
* * * Soy Bean Oil Meal," (remainder of cow feed) "Made From * * * 
Soy Bean Oil Meal," and (hog feed) "Ingredients * * * Soy Bean Oil 
Meal," were false and misleading since the articles did not contain soy bean oil 
meal, and one lot of the cow feed did not contain ground barley; and, Section 
403 (i) (2), the articles were fabricated from two or more ingredients and their 
labels failed to bear the common or usual name of each such ingredient since 
they contained ground wheat and rye, and their labels did not declare ground 
wheat and rye in the list of ingredients.
DISPOSITION:    April 17, 1944,    A plea of guilty having been entered, a fine of 
1    $500 was imposed.
