On May 21, 1921, the United States attorney for the District of Utah, acting?
upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, ? filed in the District Court of?
the United States for said district an information against Clarence Nelson,?
Green River, Utah, alleging shipment by said defendant in violation of the?
Food and Drugs Act, as amended, on or about October 2 and 4, 1920, from the?
State of Utah into the State of Colorado, of quantities of apples which were?
misbranded. The article in the first shipment was unlabeled and that in the?
second shipment was labeled: " Winter Banana Fancy."
Misbranding of the article in each shipment was alleged in the information?
for the reason that it was food in package form, and the quantity of the con??
tents was not plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside of the package.
On November 14, 1921, the defendant entered a plea of guilty to the informa??
tion, a>nd the court imposed a fine of $25.
