Prior revision: 1929 § 12411
(1940) This section forbids sale of filled milk only if the resulting product is in imitation or semblance of milk, cream or skim milk. Thus wholesome and nutritious product under label stating nature of product and that it is "not to be sold for evaporated milk" may be sold without violating this section. State ex rel. McKittrick v.
