The doctrine of intermixture only applies where there is a commingling of substance and the parts are no longer distinguishable; not to a mere confusion of goods which leaves separation possible. Thus it applies to corn, oil, wine, etc., including logs of timber; not to books in a library, tables, chairs and the like. (Crossley Vaines, 5th ed., 1973, p. 434).
