3456. Adulteration of butter.    U. S. v. 10 Cartons of Butter.    Default decree of
condemnation and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 6330.    Sample No. 90262-E.)
Analysis of this product showed that it contained excessive mold.
On November 24, 1941, the United States attorney for the District of Massa- 
chusetts filed a libel against 10 cartons, each containing 32 pounds, of butter at 
Boston, Mass., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce 
on or about September 22, 1941, by White Mountain Creamery Co. from New 
Bremen, Ohio; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in 
whole or in part of a filthy, putrid, or decomposed substance. The article was 
labeled in part: (Wrappers) "Berkshire Creamery Butter Manufactured by 
White Mountain Creamery Co. New Bremen, Ohio."
On January 19,1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
Nos. 3457 to 3494 report actions based on interstate shipments of butter 
that was deficient in milk fat.
