that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about March 17, 
1942, by Foster & Wood Canning Co. from Lodi, Calif.; and charging that it was 
adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance. 
The article was labeled in part: (Cans) "Public Seal Brand Tomato Catsup 
*    *   *   Kent Food Corporation Distributors Brooklyn, N.Y;"
On August 14, 1942, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation
