On March 3, 1919, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Washington, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
District Court of the United States for said district a libel for the seizure and 
condemnation of 700 sacks of rice feed, consigned on February 13,-1919, by the 
Globe Grain & Milling Co., San Francisco, Cal., remaining unsold in the 
original unbroken packages, at Seattle, Wash., alleging that the article had been 
shipped and transported from the State of California into the State of Wash- 
ington, charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
Adulteration of the article was alleged in the libel for the reason that a 
product consisting of ground rice hulls had been mixed and packed with, and 
had been substituted wholly or in part for, rice feed, which the article pur- 
ported to be.
On March 20, 1919, the said Globe Grain & Milling Co., claimant, having ad- 
mitted the allegations of the libel, judgment of condemnation and forfeiture 
was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product should be 
released to said claimant upon the payment of the costs of the proceedings and 
the execution of a bond in the sum of $250, in conformity with section 10 of 
the act, conditioned in part that the product should be relabeled as rice hulls 
and bran, 50 per cent hulls.
