One hundred and eighteen alleged members of the Industrial Workers of the World, captured in a raid near here today, were marched into the public square of Weirton, forced to kiss the American flag and then were driven from town by police and deputies. Seven others, suspected of having been leaders, after having kissed the flag were taken to the county jail at New Cumberland, where they will be detained pending investigation by the Federal authorities. The raid was executed without any serious disorder. Authorities of Hancock county and Weirton had been searching for the rendezvous of the alleged I. W.

Last night the alleged meeting jilace of the men sought was located in an old barn on the Hancock county road, south of here. It was surrounded by heavily armed deputies, and a few entered the barn. The few men in the barn sought to escape without success. A search of the place resulted in the finding of a large quantity of "red" literature half a ton, it was alleged in which the flag of anarchy was extolled and the prediction made that the Extremists would rule the world was made, officials declared. The deputies also found the names of 187 men. supposed to be members of the organization, to be meeting in the barn. Immediately deputies were sent out and the men were rounded jp in the public square.

EXPERTS GOING BACK TO NATURE FOR FARM LOVE
(f?y Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. The problem of making agricultural superstitions into scientific data is being studied by experts of the Department of Agriculture, who declare that many old maxims handed down from father to son for generations are not really superstitions at all, but helpful information discovered by keenly observant persons. Everybody has heard some of the old maxims. They deal with every variety of agricultural operation. Bean planting, for instance, was never done by the forefathers of fhe present generation except at the time of the blossoming of the blackberry bushes. When the catkins had formed on the maple trees, it was a sign from nature that early gardening might commence. And toward the close of the season, warning of frost was given by the maturing of the cockleburs. Now, the Department of Agriculture declares that there Is a best time for every farm and garden operation and that some tree or shrub or plant indicates that time more' accurately than all the scientific instruments can register it. It is those signs which were noted by the pioneers who laid the foundations of this country and recorded In the simple sayings handed down to posterity. Soon thew will be dignified with the scientific name of "phenology," which is the science of phenomena. Collection of natural signs into the science probably was begun with a campaign against the Hession fly. Experts were endeavoring to determine the best time for planting wheat so that the sowing would be late enough to prevent ruin by the pest and yet early enough for the grain to get a start before cold weather. It was easy enough to work out the general rule that the season varies four days for each one degree of latitude, live degrees of longitude and 400 feet of altitude, but as no two seasons are
just the same, the rule could tell only approximately when the farmer should do his sowing. Sought Homely Guides. In seeking for a more exact guide, Dr. A. D. Hopkins, of the Department, forsook the cold realm of scientific formulae for "back to nature" information. As plants respond to climatic conditions and not to dates, it was decided that some natural indication would give the information desired. It is now claimed that observation has proved that the best time for sowing wheat is that period between the full bloomnig of tall late golden rod and the time when the white, common Japanese clematis flowers are nearly all gone or the leaves are distinctly colored on the dogwood and hickories. What has been done for wheat will
be done for other crops, but the working out of the signs will be a slow process. Meanwhile, every farmer and even the city gardener, have their own guides at hand, if they have eyes to see. Thus has the superstitution and folkfore of days called primitive been justified by the advanced science of the twentieth century.

Briton Urges England to Buy From Dominions (By Associated Press) LONDON. Oct. 8. Instead of buy
ing food from the United States and
South America. Britons are urged by Sir Charles G. Wade, agent general
for New South Wales, to buy food from
the British Dominions.
"However, great may be the disarm
ing power of the League of Nations I
cannot close my eyes to the possibility of another world-wide conflagration and the risk of our supplies being cut off," said Sir Charles. "In our own
interests and for the purpose of nation
al defense this country must be self.
supporting. What we cannot produce within this island must be imported, and self-interest demands that we shall insure a constant supply of raw materials from our own kith and kin.
"Our export trade again is seriously
menaced alike by enemy and allies. Already the United States and Jpan have made heavy inroads into British
supremacy in the East. Both of these
nations are already equipped and
ready for keen competition in com
merce with the United Kingdom, while this country is suffering from an epi- j
demic of increasng cost and diminishing output. "To recover or maintain British markets a friendly field in the Dominions will be a great help, and a preferential tariff may stave off the danger of undercutting by foreign competitors."

! that "Germany encouraged by discord
among weak and struggling states, undoubtedly will resort to arms within a few years and regain her lost territory." Speaking today on the subject Mr Britten said he could not understand the statement, adding: "At present the Germans are wholly under the control of the entente. They have lost their cannon and airships and th best of their transportation facilities and a commission Is coming to Berlin to see that Germany does not undertake any underhand work. Germany is down and out. and a return to militarism In the old sense is out of the question, if for no other reason, because the government prevails against It."

-what relatively few London homes
nave tnem A resident of the British capital cannot have a telephone by simply ordering it. Lack of equipment and personnel has made extension of the city's telephone service in arrears of requirements.

Contracts have been transferred for premiums
