21358. Adulteration of blueberries. II. S. v. 22 Crates of Blueberries. Default decree of condemnation, forfeiture, and destruction. (F. & D. no. 30978. Sample no. 47093-A.) This case involved an interstate shipment of blueberries which were found to contain maggots. On August 11, 1933, the United States attorney for the District of Massachu- setts, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 22 crates of blueberries at Boston, Mass., consigned August 10, 1933, alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce by Arthur Duplisea, from Gray, Maine, and charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. It was alleged in the libel that the article was adulterated in that it con- sisted in part of a filthy, decomposed, -and putrid .vegetable substance. On August 23, 1933, no claimant having appeared for the property, judgment of condemnation and forfeiture was entered, and it was ordered by the court that the product be destroyed by the United States marshal.
