Opinion
(charging jury.) The question is whether this article is a seed. The plaintiffs must satisfy you by a fair preponderance of proof that it is a seed. It has the appearance and name of a seed. It is testified, and it is probably true, that it is not in the natural state; that it would not grow if planted; that the germ is destroyed; and that it is used for soups and for food for birds. What has been done to it is not shown by any testimony; what process has been applied to it is not state,d. It is for you to say whether it has been changed from the condition of a seed to something else.
Yerdiet for defendant.
