ry rules.     Default decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. & D.

This case involved a shipment of huckleberries that were filthy or decomposed.
On September 11, 1933, the United States attorney for the Southern District 
of Ohio, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the dis-s 
trict court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of a quantity of huekle- 
berries at Cincinnati, Ohio, consigned by H. A. (or H. E.) Roudabush, alleging 
that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce, on or about August 
7, 8, and 9, 1933, from Shenandoah, Va., and charging adulteration in violation 
of the Food and Drugs Act. The article was labeled in part: •'!!. A. Roudabush 
[or " H. E. Roudabvish "] Shenandoah, Va."
It was alleged in the libel that the article was adulterated in that it con- 
sisted in whole or in part of a putrid, filthy, and decomposed vegetable 
substance.
On October 17, 1933, no claimant having appeared for the property, judg- 
ment was entered nunc pro tunc, as of September 18, 1933, ordering that the 
product be condemned and destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
