E. Jones & Co. from Baltimore, Md.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance. The article was labeled in part: "Val Vita Brand Tomato Catsup * * * Packed by Val Vita Food Products Inc. Ful- lerton California." On February 20, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemna- tion was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
