It's the name of the hobbyist who painted the blank porcelain.

 

In this case, J. Schumacher is most likely a hobbyist china painter who did the decoration. Painting on the blank white body was a very popular hobby in the states in the late 1800's and well into the 20th century, practiced by both women and men.
