5653. Adulteration of butter.    U. S. v. Harold A. Hamilton  (Eldorado Creamery
Company).   Plea of guilty.   Fine, $200.    (F. D. C. No. 10537.    Sample Nos. 
31964-F, 42136-F.) 
On September 15,1943, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
Ohio filed an information against Harold A. Hamilton, trading as the Eldorado 
Creamery Company, Eldorado, Ohio, alleging shipment within the period from 
on or about February 10 to May 1, 1943, from the State of Ohio into the State 
of Indiana of quantities of butter that was adulterated. The article was labeled 
in part: "Wayne County Farm Bureau Produce Assn Distributors Richmond, 
Indiana   Creamery Butter."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that a valuable constituent, milk 
fat, had been in part omitted therefrom; and in that a product which contained 
less than 80 percent by weight of milk fat had been substituted for butter.
On November 1, 1943, a plea of guilty having been entered on behalf of the 
defendant, the court imposed a fine of $100 on each of the 2 counts.
