On August 19, 1940, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
West Virginia filed a libel against 110 10-pound bags and 80 25-pound bags of 
corn meal at Bluefield, W. Va., alleging that the article had been shipped in
interstate commerce on or about June 20, 1940, from Oircleville, Ohio, by J. W. 
Eshelman & Sons; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in 
whole or in part of a filthy substance or was otherwise unfit for food. The 
article was labeled in part: "Eshelman Red Rose White Corn Meal."
On January 22, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered delivered to a county institution to 
be denatured and used as hog and stock feed.
