Cape Woman Came From
Germany in 1861-Was 66
Years Old Sept. rs.
ILL A YEAR AFTER
PARALYTIC STROKE
Four Sons and Sister Survive
Was Married in Cape
i'm 1869.

Mrs. Sophia Hennecke, who has been
a resident of the Cape since 1861, died
at II o'clock last night at her home,
145 South Frederick street, as a re-
suit of hemorrhage of the brain that
she suffered four hours earlier. She
had been i'll for more than year with
heart trouble and last spring suffered
a stroke of paralysis that nearly be-
came fatal.
Mrs. Hennecke, although she had
been i'll for the last year, was able to
be up and she did much of the house
work at her home.
Tuesday she was seriously i'll, but
yesterday she felt much improved dur
ing the day. She had been forced to
remain abed for most of the time fol-
lowing the stroke of paralysis last
spring, but yesterday afternoon she
got up and sat in a chair. She was
forced to return to her bed at $50
o'clock, however, and at 7 o'clock she
suffered the cerebral hemorrhage.
Her physicians were powerless to aid
her thereafter, and the attack made
her unconscious. She sank rapidly
from that time on, and at II o'clock,
when all the members of the family
except one son who lives in the coun-
try were present, she passed away.
She was 66 years old on Tuesday,
September 26, last, and was born in
Hanover, Germany. She came over to
America in 1861 when the Civil War
was opening, and Immediately after
her arrival here, she came to the Cape.
Eight years later she was married
to Christopher Hennecke, who died
three years ago. One of their sons,
Herman Hennecke, died in 1901, and
the children who survive her are: Ed
ward Hennecke, who is in charge of
lunch stand in Gross & Rub bar on
Good Hope street; Martin, William
and Emil Hennecke.
All the sons reside in the Cape ex-
cept William Hennecke, who is on a
farm near Gordonville. She also is
survived by a sister, Mrs. Carolina
Rupert, who has resided in the Cape
at the home of George Fedder, railroad
mail clerk working out of the Cape.
Last night no funeral arrangements
had been made. Mrs. Hennecke was
member of Trinity German Lutheran
Church. !EE$.SS

FILLING THE NEEDS
OF THE SITTING Hen
How to Use Hatching Pen and
Nest Boxes and How to
Manage The Fowls.

The care of sitting hens is made
easier and successful matches more
certain when the sitters are confined
in pen away from the layers. The
floor of this Matching pen should be
earth, dug up and moistened. Nest
boxes should be placed about the
sides. There can be from 25 to 30 sit
ting hens in pen. For the nest box
IL to Is inches square and about the
same in height is suitable. Remove
the top, front, and bottom of the box
Cover the top with a burlap sack to
provide ventilation and nail wooden
strip 4 inches wide across the front
at the bottom. Have a wide board
to lean against the open front and a
brick to keep it in place when it is
necessary to confine the hen.
FIJI the bottom OF the box level
with the top Of the 4-inch board with
moist garden soil and hollow the soil
like saucer, so that the eggs will not
roll away from the hen and become
chilled. The surface of the earth
should be smooth and hard to allow
the eggs to roll. Cover the earth with
a very little straw and put in a few
common eggs.

BLACK ROT OF GRAPES.

To control black rot OF grapes the
Botany Division Of Clemson College
recommends spraying with Bordeaux
mixture. Apply Bordeaux just as the
buds begin to swell in early spring.
Make a second application as soon as
the leaves unfold and a third as soon
as the fruit Is set. After this, weather
conditions and the severity OF the
disease will determine the number of
ap. lications. Ordinarily, it is advis.
able to spray every two weeks until
the fruit begins to ripen. Black rot
is the most common and destructive
disease OF grapes in South Carolina.

Remove the sitting hen to the new
nest at night. Dust her with yellow
insect powder or grease small space
on the skin below her vent with
piece Of 33 per cent. mercurial oint-
ment about as large as q pea. This
is for lice prevention. Place the hen
quietly on the nest and shut her in.
The next evening, when it is growing
dark, dishes Of whole grain and water
should be placed in front of the nest
and the hen removed to feed. Leave
her alone and do not return until
night If the hen is then on her nest
and contented, she may be given the
sitting OF eggs you have selected for
her.
Feed sitting hens at the same hour
every day. Give them whole grain
(whoe corn is besD in a dish, letting
them eat all they desire. Even un-
der the most favorable feeding condi-
tions, hen will lose about three
fourths Of a pound in weight during
the three weeks Of incubation. If there
are many sitters in the pen, it is best
to feed seven or eight together, re-
moving any that do not leave their
nests. Replace the hens after 20
hlinutes. The doors of the nests are
closed except az feeding time. Ex-
anime the nests while the hens are
feeding and II any eggs are broken
wash the other eggs in warm water
and clean the nest Moisten the
earth about the nest frequently. On
the eighteenth day Of incubation, i'm
merse the eggs for two minutes in
warm water G06 degrees FD This
softens the membranes inside the
shell and results in the Matching Of a
greater percentage OF chicks.
