PER CURIAM.

Conceding in this case that the addition of pumpkin to tomato catsup as a filler results in an article that may be described as a compound, still the food and drugs act requires that such article must be labeled, branded, or tagged so as to plainly indicate the substances composing the compound, and it is not a compliance with the act to merely mark the word “Compound” on the package. The judgment of the District Court is affirmed.
