of condemnation and destruction. (F. & D. No. 45286. Sample No. 
54389-D.)
This product was infested with parasitic worms.
On April 11, 1939, the United States attorney for the Northern District of 
Illinois, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the 
district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of six boxes of tullibees 
at Chicago, Ill.; alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate com- 
merce on or about April 1, 1939, by Chase. P. Tobin, Baudette, Minn.; and 
charging adulteration in violation of the Food and Drugs Act.
Adulteration was alleged in that the article consisted wholly or in part 
of a filthy, decomposed, or putrid animal substance; and that it consisted of 
portions of animals unfit for food.
On April 26, 1939, the consignee having consented to the entry of a decree, 
Judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered converted 
into fertilizer.
M. L. WILSON, Acting Secretary of Agriculture.
