forfeiture and destruction.    (F. D. C. No. 7416.    Sample No. 93224-E.)
On May 4, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of Idaho filed a 
libel against 70 25-pound boxes of prunes at Boise, Idaho, alleging that the article 
had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about February 18, 1942, by A. 
Johnson from Portland, Oreg.; 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: (Boxes) "Oregon Dried Italian Prunes * * * J. R. Packing Co. 
Dundee, Ore."
On June 27, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of forfeiture was 
entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
