1810. Adulteration of dressed chickens.     U. S. v. 10 Boxes of Dressed Chickens.
Default decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 4321. 
Sample No. 31257-E.)
On March 19, 1941, the United States attorney for the Northern District of 
Illinois filed a libel against 10 boxes of chickens at Chicago, Ill., alleging that 
the article had been shipped by Duluth Apter Poultry Products from Duluth, 
Minn., on March 4, 1941; and charging that it was adulterated in that it con- 
sisted wholly or in part of a decomposed substance, and in that it was in whole 
or in part the product of diseased animals. The article was labeled in part: 
"Peterson-Biddick Co. Packers   *   *   *   Wadena, Minn."
On May 13, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
