This product having been shipped in interstate commerce and remaining un-

District of South Carolina and the Northern District of Georgia, acting upon 
reports by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in their respective district courts 
libels praying seizure and condemnation of 30 boxes of candy at Columbia, 
S. C, and 65 boxes of candy at Griffin, Ga.; alleging that the article had been 
shipped by D Orlando & Co., Inc., from Boston, Mass., in part on or about 
October 14, 1937, and in part on or about June 2, 1938; and charging adultera- 
tion in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.

of a filthy vegetable substance. 

On October 10 and 14, 1938, no claimant having appeared, judgments of 
condemnation were entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
