TUESDAY, JANUARY 17. ll?2J. The agncultuial "bloo" in the sea ate is udiuuiiUing tne passage or a bi. requiring tne president to name "dirt farmer" as a member of tii l cdcrul Kc serve board. And wily no. in spue oi the taunts and Kings u those pressing this measure, we bt sieve it would be a good tiling. it is reported that Japan Wiil bail a factory capable of turning' out Co airpianes a year. The factory, accort ing to the report, will be complete witnm tne year. We do not kt.uw no1 a tuny a.i pieties rius countiy is p*. pared to ouild; six thousand, wo irop< Not that we see any threat in Japan program, iSix hundred a your, ia vie' of the fact that an airplane is shori rived, outclassed oy improved n;i chines and wrecked by accident, iic. airplanes vviil be put to commcrc.. use more and more. If this count bad a hundred thousund airplane capable of being used, in case of wa; we wourd need very few battleship and a very small navy. We are more than ever convince tin.t Wall Street and the fertilizer i. lereais of tire country are underUikin to tloik the government leasing Alu: elu Shoars to Henry Ford. Ycsterdu we exprescd the opinion that Mr. For was probably correct when he charge this to bo true. Today we received pamphlet sent out by the ferluizi interests themselves, 111 which .i;o attempt to show the folly of trie ^ ernment's leasing to Ford. Why shou! the fertilizer interests feel cuhc upon to take such a step? Who cor stituted them the guardians of Unci Sam? Who is there, that for one m< meat, will believe the "dope" sent oi by these interests is unselfish, pair otic? More than ever do we belie\ ilcnry Kord is right when he state that Wall Street and the fertilizer i terests are against him, and are le.?\ ing no stone unturned to defeat ?i project. A newspaper editor has his "up.and his "downs," sometimes, it wou! seem, more "downs" than ups, but in a great game, even when the cdit? is office boy, news gatherer, codec to advertisement solicitor and a few oil er things com cted with a smal nnancially weak country newspaju The Times editor sometimes gel really ashamed of himself for contn uuliy giving advice v. hich few lieut expressing opinions tliut few agr*. with, and writing upon any and a subjects, many of them subjects upo which the writer is but poorly in formed and often misled. It is a r.-c pleasure, however, to realize that e\ cry "i.ek" is not a missing of the mt:i Some results accrue, as we often hav be* n ;.blc t-? discern. Recently w h ive been urging the planting of tlo.s ers and grape vines. A lady who rend The iinics s. y.s she saw these appeal: and decided to dw as suggested; am even better, she plans to plant grnp vines, fig trees, and flowers. Betlc still, she has talked it over wit neighbors, and fifteen of them ha" formed a club to go about plantini and beautifying their premises. Tiii is good news to us, and leads us t ?.eep cn trying to induce people t plant and beautify. Another reader, a gentleman of ir telligonee, came into The Times oflic yesterday and bought a James grap vine. We have a few of these vino that we persuaded one of Union Coun ty's good farmers to root and let u sell. We will turn over every cen resulting from the sale of these vine? charging no commission whatevei We are not always so generous, but in this ease, having for a dozen yearr every season, visited this farmer' grapevine during the grape season a'ting the grapes without further pa] than saying, "Thank you," we fee that it is but right that we should thu, show some gratitude. And, by th< way, these rooted grapevines are fron the very parent vine that has so man] times furnished the writer with ; "halt of grapes." If Union County would but awake What possibilities for development In > ahead! A real, first-class nursey coulu - bo profitably developed in this county. Both soil and climate are here. Par tience, and some capital directed by . a smattering of wisdom might ensii;. - bring about such a venture here. There is no reason whatever against Union County developing a green d house bus.ness. A florist co ild do ' ? well here. Some capital, sot ie eutu., 0 patience and o love for that sort ! thing combined would bring .he iisui . * There is no reason whatever a gainst ? Union County developing the pcaehct growing industry, particularly in an J mound Satituc; at least, wo l:a\o m been informed. We are already forging ahead in the * * 1 raising of hogs, raising now peri ap r about one-fourth of all the hog me and lard we consume. The ne^t steA is to get enough farmers to combine 1 and ship some of their hogs :<> ma. kei Union County is raising ]->. ;?: n half the corn it nov/ uses.

This is almost a disgrace: bi i it it is a fact, and it is not the bus'ne . of this newspaper to cover up facts, ^ even unpleasant ones. Having luilded a cannery, a pota'o ^ 9 diving hotv . and organized a collect^9 # \ng agency Tor cream, we can ur;;e move vege" ables, more sweet potc.oe , ,ti more fruifj.

Will Designs Have To Be Altered? I^ondon, Jan. 13.?The question has been raised whether the designs of the Union Jack and Royal Coat of Arms of Great Britain will have to be altered if Ireland becomes a free state within the empire. The Union Jack has the cross of St. Patrick superimposed upon the crosses of St. George and St. Andrew. The Royal Coat of Arms has the Irish harp in one of its corners. At the college of Arms in London, it was stated that certain modifications were under consideration and that if any action wore taken it would be done by the King in Council, no parliamentary action will be necessary. Heraldry experts say that alterations in arms are ^ory expensive Some years ago there was a demand from Irish quarters that Ilia blue ground of the golden harp on the roy al standard should be changed to green. It was then estimated that the alteration would cost at least ?2,000,000. To remove al reference to Ireland from the present Union Tack and Royal Arms would he vastly more expensive. One authority said that it would not be correct for England, the predominant partner, to leave Ireland out of account in the national tl.,g and royal arms, unles and until Ireland herself demanded it.

J . s Wages in Sweden Decline Stockholm, Jan. 13.?Efforts by n employers in various trades to agree with their employees on a reduction of wages have failed. The employ ers notified trade unions comprising I about 350,000 men that the collect'vc i agreement now in force would be ah?]rogatcJ In the building, engineering, wood, lion and textile trade. New collective agreements on the j basis of reduced wages were offered t but the unions declined a collective agreement.
