of condemnation.    Product converted into fertilizer.     (F. D. C. No. 2606. 
Sample No. 30189-E.)
This product contained parasitic worms.
On August 21, 1940, the United States attorney for the Northern District of 
Illinois filed a libel against 23 boxes of whitefish at Chicago, Ill., alleging that 
the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about August 12, 1940, 
by the American Fish Co. from Detroit, Mich.; and charging that it was adul- 
terated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance.
On August 23, 1940, the consignee having consented to the entry of a decree, 
judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered converted 
into fertilizer.
