  Mr. GRAVES. Mr. Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize Arthur H. 
Schnuck of Cooper County, Missouri. Mr. Schnuck will soon celebrate his 
97th birthday.
  Arthur H. Schnuck was born on June 22, 1908 on the Schnuck Century 
Farm known as the ``Walnut Range Stock Farm'' to Henry E. Schnuck and 
Ida Vieth Schnuck. The Walnut Range Stock Farm is located in Cooper 
County, just east of Boonville in Saline Township.
  Mr. Schnuck's early schooling took place at a one room school house 
at Highland. He attended Boonville High School, and after graduating in 
1928, he went on to the University of Missouri. While at Mizzou, Mr. 
Schnuck competed on several judging teams. His main interests were 
grain farming and cattle. In 1952, Mr. Schnuck won a corn growing 
contest sponsored by a radio station in Kansas City; he won with 152 
bushels of corn on a single acre in the senior division.
  Mr. Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in recognizing Arthur H. 
Schnuck of Cooper County, Missouri. Mr. Schnuck's livelong dedication 
to agriculture and his community is remarkable, and his accomplishments 
are commendable. It is an honor to represent him in the United States 
Congress. I offer him my warmest regards on this important milestone, 
and my best wishes for many more birthdays in the future.
