feiture, and destruction. (F. & D. No. 13158. I. S. No. 3029-t. S. No. 
C-2068.)
On August 2, 1920, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Kentucky, 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 186 five-gallon cans of tomato pulp, remaining unsold in the 
original packages at Louisville, Ky., consigned by the English Canning & Mfg. 
Co., English, Ind., July 6, 1920, alleging that the article had been shipped from 
English, Ind., and transported from the State of Indiana into the State of 
Kentucky, and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
Adulteration of the article was alleged in the libel for the reason that it con- 
sisted wholly or in part of a filthy, decomposed, and putrid vegetable substance.
On September 15, 1920, the English Canning Co., English, Ind., claimant, 
having admitted the allegations of the libel and having consented to a decree, 
judgment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by 
the court that the product be destroyed by the United States marshal.
C. W. PUGSLEY, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
