1435. Adulteration and misbranding of butter.    TJ. S. v. 3%   Gases of Butter.
Default decree of forfeiture and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 3567.    Sample 
No. 52521-E.)
On December 6,1940, the United States attorney for the District of Idaho filed 
a libel against 3% cases of butter at Wallace, Idaho, alleging that the article 
had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about November 16, 1940, by the 
Commercial Creamery Co. from Spokane, Wash.; and charging that it was 
adulterated and misbranded.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that a product containing less 
than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had been substituted for butter. It was 
alleged to be misbranded in that it was labeled "Butter," which was false and 
misleading since it contained less than 80 percent of milk fat.
On January 22, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment was entered 
forfeiting the product and ordering that it be destroyed.
