lister Eanaon de Valera Of the Irish
Republic (Eire) had definitely re-
jected his proposals for joint de-
fense Of the two parts OF Ireland
and that this ended the matter as
far as he (Craigavon) was con-
cerned.
Craigavon declared that any sug-
gestion that Northern Ireland should
become neutral in the present con-
fiict was "repugnant to every soul
in loyal Ulster"
He added that Northern Ireland
a part Of the United Kingdom-was
at war and would stand by Britain
and the empire to the end.

easily and naturally helps restore

Spread Poison
For Late 'Hoppers

The late hatch of grasshoppers is
in several parts of the
county, according to Max McMillin,
county agent, and farmers are urged
to keep on spreading bait where
graSshopperS are numerous even
though their crops are harvested and
the grasshoppers are not doing great
deal of damage.
The reason for spreading bait up
until frost, according to McMillin, is
to prevent the hoppers from laying
eggs, and in this way good control
can be secured for next year. On
places where farmers spread bait
diligently last year, very few hoppers
have shown up this year, and most of
these have come in later from neigh
boring farms.
