Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Notices of Judgment Under the Insecticide Act (Given Pursuant to Section 4 of the Insecticide Act), 1636-1655
On April 30, 1935, the United States attorney for the Western District of Washington, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court a libel praying seizure and condemnation of 117 cans of Nourse Gall Remedy at Seattle, Wash.; alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or about November 23, 1934, from Kansas City, Mo., by Nourse Oil Co.; and charging misbranding in violation of the Insecticide Act of 1910. The article was alleged to be misbranded in that the statement appearing on a leaflet shipped with it, Mange t Mange on Live Stock, Dogs and Household Pets are greatly benefited by its use, was false and misleading and tended to deceive and mislead the purchaser since the product was not an effective treatment for all varieties of mange which infest livestock, dogs, and household pets. The article also was alleged to be misbranded in violation of the Food and Drugs Act as reported in notice of judgment No. 29019 published under that act. On April 4, 1938, no answer to the libel having been filed, judgment of condemnation was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
