When the Rev. Frank Ritchie of ST
Ignatius' Church in New York was rec
tor Of the Church of the Ascension in
Chicago, he was most popular with
his bishop because of his extremely
high church ritualism and was known
as the BLACK sheep Of the diocese" At
a general gathering of the clergy, Faith
er Ritchie was paired off with the only
colored rector in the bishops jurlsdic-
tion. The clerical wits joked about it.
"The two black sheep of the diocese
walked together" remarked one of
them. The colored brother, broad
churchman, happened to overhear the
remark.
81 should like to know what have
done?" he demanded with rancor.
1t was not long afterward that Faith
er Rltchie went to preach in this same
colored rector's church, and he was in
troduced in this manner:
Father Ritchie will preach this even.

editor of the Detroit Post and a year
later he moved to st. Louis, where he
purchased an interest in the Westliche
Post, Of which he took charge. In 1863
Mr.. Schurz was elected United States
Senator from Missouri.
He found himself very soon forced to
oppose the tendencies developed by the
strenuous war period in the party to
which he had been warmly devoted,
and he threw aside the party yoke by
opposing the plans Of President Grant
The first open difference came with the
submission to the Senate of the treaty
for the annexation Of Santo Domingo,
which he fought with all his energy.
In the Liberal Republican movement
he took a prominent part and was
chairman Of the Cincinnati convention
which nominated Horace Greeley. He
was actively engaged in the Ohio can
vass, supporting the election of Hayes
as Governor on a hard money plat
form, and he also took an active part
In the presidential campaign which re-
suited in the election of Hayes. In 1877
he was appointed to seat in the cab
met,
1t was while Secretary Of the In
terror that Mr.. Schurz put into opera
ton the principles and methods of civil
service reform, seven years before their
adoption by law.
Although Mr.. Schurz held no public
Office after his retirement from the cab
met his influence in public affairs was
felt almost to the end of his life He
was a powerful antagonist of machine
politics, and because of his strong fol-
lowing his cooperation in all reform
movements was welcomed

Hoed Crop. in the Orchard.

The best orchardists are averse to
growing anything in the orchards but
the trees even when the latter are
young. They argue, and properly, that
the growing trees need all the virtue
there Is in the soil and that II the ap-
pie crops In future years are to be OF
any value they must be provided for
during the earlier years OF the trees.
There are fruit growers, on the other
hand, who insist that a hOed crop will
be Of benefit to the trees, and that this
may be cOnsireded so under certain
conditions and up to certain limits.
II the soil in the orchard Is kept up
to the highest state of fertility SO that
the trees will not suffer the want Of
the portion of the fertilizer taken by
the hoed crop, then the latter can do
no harm, indeed, 1t will be Of value
because the soil will receive a certain
amount Of cultivation which, perhaps
would not be given 1t If it were not
for the hoed crop. Work the hoed
crop in the orchard cautiously, and
watch the effect on the trees.

Whether she be a Holstein, a Jer-

find the typical dairy COW with bony
head and strong jaw, long between the
eyes and nose, with broad muzzle. She
should have bright, protruding eye,
which means strong nerve force and
action later on. She should have a
thin neck and retreatlng brisket. The
lines above and below must not be
straight, or she will steal from you.
She should be slightly depressed be-
hind the shoulders with sharp chine
hot too straight backbone. She
must have large organs Of reproduction
and large heart girth, wide between
fore legs and sharp on shoulders,
which gives large heart action and
strong arterlal circulation. And last,

good udder, for one-half the value
of Il cow Is in her udder, which should
be long from front to rear.

In the many battles for civic righteous
ness in which he took leading part be-
lieve it impossible for the country to
measure the full value of his services
to it.
The life of SchuZ was full Of ad-
venture and interesting details. He
was born at Liblar, near Cologne Prus-
sia,. on March 2, 1929. He was edu-
Gated Mt the Gymnasium of Cologne and
subsequently at the University Of Bonn,
which he entered in 1916.
Gottfried Kinkel, poet, philosopher
and patriot, who had married Carl
Schurz's cousin, was professor of
rhetorics In the university. After the
revolution of 1913 had broken out Kin
kel headed an insurrection, was cap
tured and condemned to Imprisonment
for twenty years. Schurz was engaged
In the defense of Rastadt, a town and
fortress In Baden, when it was cap
tured. He hid in shed for three days
and finally escaped through sewer
and made his way to Switzerland and
thence to Paris. There, disguised as
an organ grinder, he effected the rescue
Of Kinkel, who accompanied him to
England. Schurz support, d himself In
London for a while, teaching German
and writing letters to German news
papers, before he came to the United
States in 1852.
When Schurz landed in New York he
could neither speak nor write the En-
glish language, and the political ban
ners of Pierce and Scott which spanned
Broadway were sore puzzle to him.
Yet three years afterward he was ad-
mitted to the bar in Jefferson, Wis,
and Immediately entered the struggle
against the aggresslons Of slavery, for
which the Republican party was rap
Idly organizing. Schuri worked mainly
through the Germans of the Northwest,
and five years after landing in this
country the immigrant boy was NOM
mated for Lieutenant Governor of Wis
consin and came within 200 votes of
being elected.
In 1858 Schurz took an active part
in the Lincoln-Douglas campaign In ILL
nois, and 1t was during this that he
formed friendship with Lincoln which
was ended only by the death Of the
President. In 1859 Schurz went to Bos-
ton, where he made an address on True
Americanlsm, which was commented on
Io1 hn ba
speech would find 1t hard to believe
that 1t was written by a man who sew
en- years before could not speak En-
gllsh.
A year after making this address Mr..
Schurz was elected chairman Of the Re-
publican national convention In Chi
cago, and supported the nomination Of
Mr.. Seward to the last. After the con-
vention he spoke In various States Of
the Union, and on the accession Of
Abraham Lincoln to the presidency Mr..
Schurz was appointed minister to
Spain. He reached Madrid In July,
but after he realized how great a strug-
gle the Civil War was to be he was
recalled at his own request. In Decem-
Der he was appointed a brigadier gen
eral Of volunteers. Mr.. Schurz com
manded a division Of the Eleventh
Corps under Howard, fought with Ere
mont and Sigel, and ended his service
under Sherman in North Carolina.
After the war Mr.. Schurz was ap-
pointed n special commissioner to re-
port on the condition of the seaboard
and gulf states, and after that he be-
came special correspondent of the
New York Tribune. In 1866 he became

When flock Of sheep Is kept on a
field the land will be made fertile in a
short time, as the sheep not only dis
tribute the manure, but press 1t into
the ground by trampling, the loss being
but little. For that reason it has been
said that "the foot of the sheep Is gold
to the land" A flock of sheep, how
ever, cannot add anything to the land
other than to prevent waste of materi-
ais, which they naturally consume and
are, therefore, more valuable when
they nre fed ut barn at night, the
additional food rendering the manure

Il is. of the interests of any class Of

OTHER CONCERNS LOCATE HERE

Final details have been arranged
for the organization of The Old Ken
lucky Cereal Goa company that
promises to mean big things for Pa
ducah and the farmers of this vicini-
ty.
The company will manufacture
malt fake and grits. used in the maxi
ing of beer. and the by-products will
be hominy, kiln-dried meal and feed
stuff. The plant will have capaci-
ty of 1000 bushels of corn, wheat
and rice a day, and should boom Pa
ducah as market for such products.
as ii Is the intention of the company
to buy just as much of the corn and
wheat in West Kentucky and the
country tributary to Paducah as pos
sible, which will be a stimulus TO
the farmers.
The company already has promises
for almost enough business TO con
sumo the entire capacity of the mill,
and expects no difficulty in market
ing all il can make. The malt fake
will be sold to brewers, the hominy
and meal to the large markets, and
the feed stuffs to the dealers.
The plant will be located in the
Mckinney Veneer and Package Co.,

have charge of the manufacturing
end of the business. He is an ex-

turing the different products. With
his family he will make Paducah his

probably be increased to 100. Lo-
cal capitalists subscribed to $4,000
of the bonds of the company and the
issue has been taken except about
5000. The Commercial club has
been working on the proposition for
some time. and deserves a good deal
of credit for its location.
The officers and directors. except
as given above, have not been dcid-
ed upon, but the details of organiza-
ton will be arranged in a few days.
The saw mill now located in the
Mckinney plant will be removed to a
point faTther up the river.
