alleging that the article had been shipped on or about May 12,1943, by the Mon- 
tana Mustard Seed Co., Power, Mont.; and charging that it was adulterated in 
that it consisted in whole or in part of a filthy substance because of the presence 
of larvae and insect fragments. The article was labeled in part: "Superior 
Brand Mustard Seed   Distributed by Farmer's Trading Co. Cut Bank, Montana".
Oh October 18,1943, Max Feuerstein, Brooklyn, N. Y., claimant, having admitted
