171. Adulteration of flour.     U. S. v. 107 Bags and 121 Bags of Flour.     Default
decree of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 1065.    Sample Nos. 
83109-D, 83110-D.)
On November 22, 1939, the United States attorney for the Middle District 
of Georgia filed a libel against 228 bags of flour at Thomasville, Ga., alleging 
that the article had been shipped on or about September 16 and October 23, 
1939, by Pfeffer Milling Co., from Lebanon, Ill.; and charging that it was 
adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance. It was 
labeled in part: "Fluffy Ruffles   *    *   *   Bleached Plain Soft Wheat Flour."
On January 11, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condem- 
nation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
