condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 2235.    Sample No. 30508-E.)
On June 8,1940, the United States attorney for the Northern District of Illinois 
filed a libel against four cubes of butter at Chicago, Ill., alleging that the article 
had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about May 27,1940, by the Kruger 
Dairy Products Co. from Monon, Ind.; and charging that it was adulterated in 
that a product containing less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had been 
substituted for butter. The article was labeled in part: "Butter Distributed by 
Beatrice Creamery Co. Chicago."
On June 17, 1940, the consignor having admitted the allegations of the libel 
and having consented to the entry of a decree, judgment of condemnation was 
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
