4184. Adulteration of canned peaches. V. S. v. 81 Cases of Canned Peaches. 
Default decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 8041. 
Sample No. 25642-F.)
Examination of this product showed the presence of worm-eaten and worm- 
infested peaches.
On August 5, 1942, the United States attorney for the Middle District of Ala- 
bama filed a libel against 81 cases, each containing 24 cans, of peaches at Mont- 
gomery, Ala., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce 
on or about July 16, 1942, by Bankston-Edwards Canning Co. from Zebulon, Ga.; 
and charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted wholly or in part of a 
filthy substance. The article was labeled in part: (Cans) "Becco Brand, Con- 
tents 1 lb. 12 ozs.   White Freestone Peaches."

On September 9,1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and it was ordered that the product be destroyed by feeding it to 
the hogs of a local prison.
