3695. Adulteration of butter.    V. S. v. 74 Tubs of Butter.    Consent decree of
condemnation.    Product ordered released under bond to be re-worked.
(F. D. C. No. 6905.    Sample No. 62398-E.) 
On February 6, 1942, the United States attorney for the Northern District of 
Illinois filed a libel against 74 63-pound tubs of butter at Chicago, Ill. alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on January 17, 1942, 
by O. G. Harp Poultry & Egg. Co. from Shawnee, Okla.; and charging that it was 
adulterated. It was labeled in part: "Creamery Butter The Peter Fox Sons 
Co.   Distributors."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that an article containing less than 
80 percent by weight of milk fat had been substituted for butter.
On February 27, 1942, the Peter Fox Sons Co., Chicago, Ill., claimant, haying 
admitted the allegations of the libel, judgment of condemnation was entered and 
the product was ordered released under bond conditioned that it be reworked 
under the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration.
