24291. Adulteration of butter.    V. S. v. 24 Tubs of Butter.    Default decree
of  condemnation  and  destruction.     (F.   &  D.  no.   34506.     Sample  no. 
25526-B.)
This case involved an interstate shipment of butter which was found to be 
filthy.
On November 6, 1934, the United States attorney for the Northern District 
of Illinois, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel against 24 tubs of butter at Chicago, Ill., alleging that 
the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about October 
29, 1934, by Sjostrum Bros., from Marcus, Iowa, and charging adulteration in 
violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in 
part of a filthy animal substance.
On December 17, 1934, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and it was ordered that the product be destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
