Reducing mosquitoes around your home and property
ST. LOUIS, MO—The Department of Public Works is in charge of the City of St. Charles' mosquito control program. All public streets in the city are sprayed regularly with an ultra-low volume fogger/sprayer to treat adult mosquitoes. The application depends on the weather and will not take place if there is rain, cold temperatures, or winds over 10 mph. Adult mosquito treatment is only a temporary solution. The more effective solution is eliminating breeding places and preventing mosquitoes while they are still in the water.

Black Scotsman became an Alton abolitionist
As one who has studied the life of Elijah Lovejoy, the abolitionist newspaper editor who was murdered in Alton in 1837, I was familiar with William “Scotch” Johnston. I often wondered how a black American managed to acquire a nickname such as “Scotch.” Reading Johnston’s obituary in the July 16, 1885 edition of the Alton Telegraph solved that mystery. He was a native of Aberdeen, Scotland. The Telegraph obituary misspelled his name as “Johnson.”
