Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notices of Judgment Under the Insecticide Act (Given Pursuant to Section 4 of the Insecticide Act): Nos. 1276-1295 This case was based on an interstate shipment of Acme 2 Way spray which) was recommended, among other uses, as a spray for sour-cherry trees, and; which would be injurious to sour-cherry trees when used as directed. On September 17, 1932, the United States attorney for the District of Oregon, acting upon a report by the Secretary of Agriculture, filed in the district court an information against the Acme White Lead Color Works, a corpora tion trading at Portland, Oreg, alleging shipment by said company, in viola tion of the Insecticide Act of 1910, on or about January 5, 1932, from the State of Oregon into the State of Washington, of a quantity of Acme 2 Way spray that was adulterated and misbranded. It was alleged in the information that the article was adulterated in that it was intended for use on vegetation, namely, sour cherry trees, and the article when used as a spray upon sour cherry trees as directed, would be injurious to such vegetation. Misbranding was alleged for the reason that the statements on the label, For sour cherries, use 7 pounds of Acme 2 Way Spray to, 50 gallons of water or 10 tablespoonfuls to 1 gallon of water borne on. The package label, were false and misleading and by reason of the statements the article was labeled so as to deceive and mislead the purchaser, since the article, when used as directed, could not be used as a spray for all sour cherry trees, but such use would cause serious injury thereto. On January 11, 1933, a plea of guilty to the information was entered om behalf of the defendant company, and the court imposed a fine of $10.
