1736. Adulteration of butter.     U. S. v. Spring Valley Butter Co.     Plea of guilty.
Fine, $SO and costs.     (P. D. C. No.  2940.    Sample Nos.  16678-E, 16679-E, 
16680-E.)
On March 13, 1941, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Missouri filed an information against the Spring Valley Butter Co., a corporation, 
at Kansas City, Mo., alleging shipment on or about August 9 and 12, 1940, 
from the State of Missouri into the State of Kansas of quantities of butter which 
was adulterated. The article was labeled in part: "Daisy Maid Brand Country 
Roll [or "Monogram Creamery"] Butter The Cudahy Packing Co. Distributors."
It 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 March 21, 1941, a plea of guilty having been entered on behalf of the 
defendant, the court imposed a fine of $30 and costs.
