10547. Misbranding of tomatoes. U. S. * * * v. James Daniel Bonds 
and Howard Joseph Foltss (J. D. Bonds &. Co.). Pleas of guilty. 
Fine, $10 and costs.     (F. & D. No. 14359.    I. S. No. 11526-t.)
On April 13, 1921, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
Tennessee, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
District Court of the United States for said district an information against 
James Daniel Bonds and Howard Joseph Foltz, copartners, trading as J. D. 
Bonds & Co., Humboldt, Tenn., alleging shipment by said defendants, on or 
about July 19, 1920, in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, as amended, from 
the State of Tennessee into the State of Indiana, of a quantity of tomatoes 
which were 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 in terms of 
weight, measure, or numerical count.
On November 1, 1921, the defendants entered pleas of guilty to the informa- 
tion, and the court imposed a fine of $10 and costs.
C. W. PUGSLEY, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
