of nolo contendere. Fine, $100 and costs. (F. D. C. No. 5563. Sample 
Nos. 69511-E, 69512-E.)
Examination of this product disclosed the presence of decomposed as well 
as of diseased poultry.
On January 9, 1942, the United States attorney for the District of Maryland 
filed an information against the Agar Poultry Farms Corporation, Berlin, Md.,
alleging shipment on or about August 20 and 21, 1C41, from the State of Mary- 
land into the State of New York of quantities of poultry that was adulterated 
in that it consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance; and in that 
it was in whole or in part the product of animals, i. e. poultry which had died 
otherwise than by slaughter.
On February 11, 1942, a plea of nolo contendere was entered on behalf of 
the defendant and the court imposed a fine of $100 and costs.
