1199. Misbranding   of  Wayne   Flushing  Hash.    U.   S.   v.   160  Bags  of  Wayne
Flushing   Slash.    Default   decree   of   condemnation.    Product   ordered
delivered to a Federal institution, for use as animal feed.     (F. D. C. No.
11755.    Sample No. 59532-F.)
On February 11, 1944, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of
Michigan filed a libel against 160 bags, each containing 25 pounds, of the above-
named product at Centerline, Mich., alleging that the article had been shipped
by Allied Mills, Inc., Fort Wayne, Ind., between the approximate dates of
October 28 and November 27, 1943; and charging that it was misbranded.
Examination disclosed that the article consisted essentially of carbohydrates,
protein, fats, bran, small amounts of the carbonates, sulfates, chlorides, iodides
and phosphates of calcium, iron, sodium, and manganese.
The article was alleged to be misbranded in that the statements appearing in
an accompanying circular which represented and suggested that the article would
be effective in the prevention or treatment of coccidiosis and would be an aid in
preventing disease in chickens were false and misleading since the article would
not be effective in the prevention or treatment of coccidiosis or any other dis-
ease condition of chickens.
On March 14, 1944, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation
was entered and the product was ordered delivered to a Federal institution, for
use as animal feed.
