of condemnation and destruction.     (F. D. C. No. 5076.    Sample No. 48154-E.)
This product contained rodent hairs and excreta, and insect fragments and 
larvae.
On or about July 9, 1941, the United States attorney for the Northern District 
of Florida filed a libel against 20 bags of eorn meal at Quincy, Fla., alleging that 
the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about May 2, 1941, by 
Smith Bag & Milling Co. from Bainbridge, Ga.; and charging that it was adulter- 
ated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy substance. The article 
was labeled in part: "Smith's Old Fashion Water Ground Corn Meal."
On September 29, 1941, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- 
tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
