ALPSTAG'S FIRE ALARM

Friday evening during the heavy
and electrical storm which passed
over Langdon between eight and nine
O'Clock, the wires of both the light
plant and the telephone company were
to some extent put out Of commission.
One of the results of which occasioned
the u~nintentional calling out of the
fire department to the Fred Alpstag
home. 'sCrossed wires" the tele-
phone and electric light wires becom-
ing entang]ed by the storm, resulted
in the burning out of the dry cell
batteries of the telephone at the Alp
stag residence. A call sent in to
central by a ~neighbor resulted in a fire
alarm instead of the trouble doc
tor from the telephone office.
Hence the fire alarm Friday evening.

The BOX ELDER TREE PEST

1t looks as if Langdon was in it for
a destruction OF the foliage of the
shade trees again this summer AL
ready the worms have checked the
growth and color, Some years ago a
visitation OF this kind practically
denuded the box elders Of all their
leaves and the dropping Of the worms
on the sidewalks made them so dis
agreeable that pedestrians had to take
the middle Of the roads. There was
no permanent damage done to the
trees however, al that time. The
remedy Is said 70 prevent the larvae
from climbing the trees in the spring,
as they burroH all winter and 90 up
the trees in the warm days. Appli-
cations Of pine tar, sticky Ay paper,
etc. about the trunks keep the worms
from climbing.
