This product having been shipped in interstate commerce and remaining 
unsold and in the original packages, was found at the time of investigation to 
be insect-infested.
On August 20, 1938, the United States attorney for the Eastern District of 
Louisiana, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of seven bags of rolled 
oats at New Orleans; La.; alleging that the article had been shipped on or 
about July 15, 1938, by the Northern Oats Co. from Minneapolis, Minn,; and 
charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act. The article 
was labeled in part: "Northern Rolled Oats."
Adulteration was alleged in that the article consisted wholly or in part of 
a filthy vegetable substance.
On September -29, 1938, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condem- 
nation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
