903. Adulteration of apple butter.    U. S. v. 35 Cases of Apple Butter.    Default
decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 1645. Sample No. 
90748-D.)
This product contained arsenic trioxide and lead in amounts which might have 
rendered it injurious to health.
On March 28, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of Montana 
filed a libel against 25 cases of apple butter at Kalispell, Mont., alleging that 
the article had been shipped on or about October 1, 1935, by the Pacific Food 
Products Co. from Seattle, Wash.; and charging that it was adulterated in that 
it contained poisonous and deleterious substances, namely, arsenic trioxide and 
lead which might Jiave rendered it injurious to health. The article was labeled 
in part: "Sunny Jim Brand Pure Apple Butter."
On June 7, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
