On October 3, 1921, the United States attorney for the District of Minnesota,?
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the District Court?
of the United States for said district an information against the W. P. Deve-?
reux Co., a corporation, Minneapolis, Minn., alleging shipment by said com??
pany, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, as amended, on or about October?
24, 1919, from the State of Minnesota into the State of Kansas, of a quantity?
of unlabeled sacks of barley feed which was misbranded.
Misbranding of the article was alleged in the information for the reason?
that it was food in package form, and the quantity of the contents was not?
plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside of the package.
On October 3, 1921, a plea of guilty to the information was entered on behalf?
of the defendant company, and the court imposed a fine of $25.
