23110. Adulteration of blueberries. V. S. v. 12 Crates of Blueberries. D fault decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. & D. no. 33354. Sample no. 5665-B.) This case involved a shipment of blueberries which were infested with maggots. On August 3, 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 12 crates of blue- berries at Rochester, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in inter- state commerce on or about August 1, 1934, by Jos. Kuzo, 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.
