FOUL BROOD.

The Census of 1910 shows decrease
of almost 10000 colonies of bees on the
farms of the United States. There is
also "a considerable decrease in the
number of farms reporting bees Since
bee keeping is one of the important and
profitable minor branches of agricul-
ture, this decrease among farmer bee
keepers is unfortunate. No returns
are available for bee keepers in towns
and cities.
Bee keeping is fast becoming the
business of the specialist and the num-
ber of men who devote their entire at
tention to the business is rapidly in
creasing. However, there is no reason
why the average farmer can not keep
few colonies of bees to supply honey
for home consumption with perhaps
some surplus for sale in good years.
The United States Department of Ag-
riculture attributes most of the report
ed decrease to the brood diseases of
bees which are now found widely dis
tributed in the United States. The
department has knowledge of these
diseases in about twenty per cent of all
counties in the United States. Where
disease exists bee keepers often lose
colonies and attribute their loss to
some other cause. Because of these
facts, the department advises persons
interested in bees to inform themselves
concerning these diseases. 1t is quite
possible to keep bees with profit with
disease prevalent in the neighborhood
provided the bee keeper knows how to
treat the disease. Farmers Bulletin
No. 442, The Treatment of Bee Dis
eases, will be sent free on request to

SHEBOYGAN LANDS HATCHERY.

The fish hatchery THAT Two Rivers
was desirous OF securing, will be To-
Gated at Sheboygan. Those from this
city who were interested in locating
the hatcheryl,here can not understand
how the commission could turn down
the offer of a beautiful free site and
overlook the many advantages this city
offered for the location of the hatchery.
1t is certainty that Sheboygan land
ed the hatchery because ). it had a
political pull' and not because it had
a better location. The other hatchery
will be established at Sturgeon Bay.

EDUCATIONAL.
(BY G. w. MEISNEST.l

1t remained for Mrs. Lizzie A. Lucy
of Janesville to write the jingle for
children, teaching them the names of
the presidents of the United States in
rhyme, so that they can be easily re-
membered. Almost everyone remem-
bers the little rhyme of the English
kings, civilian the Conqueror and
William the Son." and so forth and
how easy it is to remember the direct
line of descent of our English cousins,
many rulers,
Mrs. Lucy is q former newspaper
woman, and also has taught school.
She, herself, student and interested
in history, had trouble in recalling the
presidents in the order they should go,
and feeling that others might have the
same experiences, wrote the following
rhyme. She sent copy to President
Taft and former President Roosevelt,
and from both received congratulatory
letters in reply.
1t S purely a jingle, no real literary
merits being attached to it, but it
gives the reader means of remember
ing the sequence of names that is often
perplexing. The following is the
rhyme:
UNITED STATES PRESIDENTS IN
RHYME.
First, Washington of immortal fame;
10 succeed him good John Adams came;
Then Thomas Jefferson; well-known
was he
As the type of official simplicity.
James Madison, in 1909,
Was fourth in the presidential line,
And James Monroe, in II,
Was one of the best the land has seen.
Another Adams, this j. O.,
The son of Adams, No. 2,
Was called to show what he could do.
Brave Andrew Jackson, in 30;
He came of a famous fighting line.
Next Martin Van Buren,, of Kinder
hook,
Presidential duties undertook.
Harrison, Tyler, and James X. Polk,
All came of honest, loyal folk.
Next Zachary Taylor, in '4S,
Was chosen to guide the ship of state.
Under Fillmore and Franklin Pierce
Sectional feeling was growing fierce,
So that James Buchanan, elected next,
Found the nation with vital questions
veXed.
Then appeared Lincoln, serene and
grand
The best beloved in all the land,
Who fell by an assassin's hand
Andrew Johnson filed out his term:
lie was undiplomatic but brave and
firm,
His successor was ona devoid Of can't
That silent soldier, u. S. Grant.
Then Hayes, then Garfield. The lat
ter's fate
Was to fall the victim OF anarchist
hate.
Chester A. Arthur took his place,
And discharged its duties with courtly
grace.
Then Grover Cleveland, the Democrat;
Next Benjamin Harrison: after that
Cleveland was called again to the fore,
And filled the office four years more.
This brings us down to McKinley's
date,
Our loved and martyred chief magis-
trate.
Then came one dear to the peoples
heart
Who proved resourceful from the start.
Who with large questions had always
dealt
Genial Theodore Roosevelt.
After him the chair was filed
BY one in administration skilled;
An honest man devoid of Graf;
Opposed to trusts and spoils and graft
Our present chieftain, good Bill Taft.

This assertion is more applicable to
children living in cities and villages.
Children in rural communities as a
