1421. Adulteration of butter.    TJ. S. v. Farmers Union Co-operative Creamery,
a corporation.    Plea of guilty.    Fine, $10.     (F. D. C. No. 2854.    Sample 
No. 10158-E.)
On October 31, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of North 
Dakota filed an information against the Farmers Union Cooperative Creamery, 
a corporation at Portland, N. Dak., alleging shipment on or about May 4, 1940, 
from the State of North Dakota into the State of New York of a quantity of 
butter that was adulterated. The article was labeled in part: ''No. West Dairy 
Forward Co., Carlton, Minn. Creamery Butter Distributed by Zimmer & Dunkak, 
Inc., New York."
It was alleged to be adulterated in that a valuable constituent, milk fat, had 
been in part omitted therefrom; and in that a product containing less than 80 
percent by weight of milk fat had been substituted for butter.
On November 12, 1940, a plea of guilty having been entered on behalf of the 
defendant, the court imposed a fine of $10.
