23107. Adulteration of blaeberries.     V. S. v. 3 Crates of Blueberries.    De¬
fault decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. & D. no. 33350. 
Sample no. 5660-B.)
This case involved a shipment of blueberries which were infested with 
maggots.
On August 2, 1934, the United States attorney for the Western District of 
New York, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of three crates of 
blueberries at Rochester, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in 
interstate commerce on or about July 31, 1934, by Chas. Druian, from Hazleton, 
Pa., and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
It was alleged in the libel that the article was adulterated in that it consisted 
in whole or in part of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid vegetable substance.
On August 29, 1934, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and it was ordered that the product be destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
