On July 16, 1934, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Illinois, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district 
court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of four cans of cream at 
McLeansboro, Ill., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate 
commerce by H. A. Hicks Co., on or about July 11, 1934, from La Center, Ky., 
and Clinton, Ky., and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs 
Act.   The 4 cans were part of a shipment of 59 cans of cream.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in 
part of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid animal substance*
On August 6, 1934, no claimant having appeared, judgment of forfeiture was 
entered and it was ordered that the said four cans of cream be destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
