On or about November 26, 1934, the United States attorney for the District 
of Kansas, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 7 cans (70 gallons) 
of cream at Marysville, Kans., alleging that the article had been shipped in 
interstate commerce, on or about November 26, 1934, in various shipments by 
Douglas Hatchery, Tecumseh, Nebr.; T. C. Bradley, Liberty, Nebr.; Roy 
Novotny, Odell, Nebr.; Farmers Union Store, Filley, Nebr.; Noakes Bros., 
Filley, Nebr.; 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.
The Armour Creameries, the consignee, appeared, admitted the allegations of 
the libel, and petitioned the immediate destruction of the product. On January 
7, 1935, the product having been destroyed, judgment of condemnation was 
entered confirming the destruction by the marshal.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
