On June 10, 1940, the United States attorney for the District of Minnesota filed 
a libel against 94 cases of canned peas at St. Paul, Minn., alleging that the 
article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about March 16, 1940, by 
the Friday Canning Corporation from New Richmond, Wis.; and charging that it 
was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a filthy substance. It 
was labeled in part: (Cans) "Harmony Brand * * * Early Variety Peas"; 
or "Willow River   *   *    *   Early June Peas."
On August 10, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
