On November 30, 1934, the United States attorney for the Western District 
of Missouri, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of three cans of cream 
at Kansas City, Mo., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate 
commerce, on or about November 22 and 23, 1934, by W. E. Johnson, Ft. Scott, 
Kans., and C. W. Weiss, Thayer, Kans., and charging adulteration in violation 
of the Food and Drugs Act.
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it was moldy, rancid, putrid, 
filthy, and decomposed.
On December 1, 1934, the product being spoiled and unfit for human con- 
sumption, and the consignee the Borden's Produce Co., Kansas City, Mo., 
having consented to its destruction, judgment was entered ordering that it 
be destroyed.
