On or about November 21, 1941, the United States attorney for the Eastern 
District of Illinois filed a libel against 77 cases of apple butter at Murphysboro, 
111., alleging that the article had been transported in interstate commerce on 
or about May 7 and September 10, 1941, by the Daniel Grocer Co. from the 
Salomo Food Products Co. of St. Louis, Mo., to the place of business of the 
Daniel Grocer Co., Murphysboro, IL; and charging that it was adulterated in 
that it contained rodent hairs and insect fragments; and in that it had been 
prepared under insanitary conditions whereby it might have become con- 
taminated. The article was labeled in part: (Jars) "Trust Me Brand Pure 
Apple Butter."
