25890. Adulteration of cauliflower.    U. S. v. 56 Crates of Cauliflower.    Default
decree   of   condemnation,   forfeiture,  and   destruction.      (F.   &   D.   no.
36558.    Sample no. 53913-B.)
This product contained arsenic.
On October 16, 1935, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Pennsylvania, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 56 crates of cauli- 
flower at Philadelphia, Pa., alleging that the article had been shipped in inter- 
state commerce, on or about October 15,1935, by A. Reich, from Riverhead, Long 
Island, N. Y., to Philadelphia, Pa., and charging adulteration in violation of the 
Food and Drugs Act.
Adulteration of the product was charged under the allegation that it contained 
an added deleterious or poisonous ingredient, namely, arsenic, which might have 
rendered it harmful to health.
On November 8, 1935, no claimant having appeared, a default decree of 
condemnation, forfeiture, and destruction was entered.
W. R. GREGG, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
