pounds each, of raisins, remaining in the original unbroken packages at Ta-?
coma, Wash., alleging that the article had been shipped by Chaddock & Co.,?

Washington, arriving at Tacoma, Wash., on or about July 17, 1919, and charg??
ing adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.

mixed and packed therewith so as to reduce and lower and injuriously affect?
