On February 4, 1921, the United States attorney for the Western District 
of Washington filed a libel against 49 cubes of butter at Seattle, Wash., alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about January 
25, 1941, by the Northern Creamery Co. from Great Falls, Mont.; and charging 
that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy 
or decomposed animal substance.
On May 22, 1941, the Beatrice Creamery Co., claimant, having consented to 
the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product 
was ordered released under bond for conversion into refined butter oil.
