22726. Adulteration of tullibees.    V. S. v. Oliver J. Selvog.    Plea of guilty.
Fine, $40.     (F. & D. no. 32176.    Sample nos. 43856-A, 43857-A.)
This case was based on shipments of tullibees that contained cysts of para- 
sitic worms.
On May 24, 1934, the United States attorney for the District of Minnesota, 
acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court 
an information against Oliver J. Selvog, Warroad, Minn., alleging shipment 
by said defendant in violation of the Food and Drugs Act, on or about Septem- 
ber 21 and September 23, 1933, from the State of Minnesota into the State of 
New York, of quantities of tullibees which were adulterated. The article 
was labeled, " From O. J. S. Address Warroad", or " From Oliver Selvog, 
Address Warroad."
It was alleged in the information that the article was adulterated in that 
it consisted in part of filthy animal substances, namely, cysts; and in that 
it consisted of portions of animals unfit for food.
On June 25, 1934, the defendant entered a plea of guilty and the court 
imposed a fine of $40.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
