Tennessee filed a libel against 140 daisies, each containing from 21 to 25 pounds, 
of Cheddar cheese at Memphis, Tenn., alleging.that the article had been shipped 
in interstate commerce on or about July 25, 1942, by the Associated Dairies, Inc., 
from St. Louis, Mo.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted 
wholly or in part of filthy substances, and in that it had been "prepared under 
insanitary conditions whereby it might have become contaminated with filth.
On October 16, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered delivered to the War Production Board 
for conversion into inedible grease for use in the war program.
