Detroit banks report a very heavy
demand for money from out In the
state. Farmers are requiring money
this year to hold their crops for bet
ter prices than are now prevailing
in the grain and produce markets
Another effect of the low price OF
corn is a tendency to use the crop
for fattening hogs and sheep, instead
OF putting the grain on the market
Michigan farmers are requiring mon
ey to buy sheep and hogs from the
Chicago market for feeding II is
said that most OF this years crop will
be driven OF the farm instead of
hauled OF. Detroit banks are having
all that they can do to meet this
country demand.

stocker. and .Feeders.

Demand has not been good for the
past three weeks which is attributed
to the busy time on the farms, but some
say that it is because prices are higher
than the buyers want to give. There is
less competition from the killers than
usual and the low grade thin killing
steers are gradually dropping lower
which gives the feeder buyer a little
better opportunity. Not many good
feeders are offered these days-sonie OF

WATSON
 DIDN'T PURCHASE THE TH0RNE HOME

In an interview with General Wat son by a Farmer reporter he said he wished to correct the published state Tnent that he had bought the Thorne Estate at Black Rock and that more careful examination of the deeds late- ly given by Jonathan Thorne to Gen. eral Watson would show that MT. Thorne had sold only a small portion of the large property which Mi. Thorne owns there. What General Watson did purchase was the two houses and lots on which they stand just east and north of General Wat sons residence on Grover Hill in Black Rock.
 These were the two houses rented and occupied this last summer by Ma thaniel w. Bishop. president of the University Club. and George Flames, the only road to be closed is a part of a private road that was owned jointly by MT. Thorne and General Watson, and in place of this General Watson is to open a new private road to the north of the two acquired cot tages which is simply a change in the location of the private road. MT. Thorne who, as General Watson says is a valuable resident of Black Rock, will continue to occupy his handsome stone residence on the Hill and has lately had a well known landscape gardener engaged in laying out in an artistic manner the grounds around his place. MT. Thorne also owns several cottages and desirable building sites which have been placed in the hands of T. L. Watson G Co. the well known bankers at Main and John streets, for sale or lease.

Farmers Football Extra First to Give Bridgeport
 Story of the Big Contest

The Farmers football extra, giving the complete story of the Yale-Tiar- yard football game Saturday, was the first extra paper upon the streets of Bridgeport, and the public read the story of the game in The Farmer long before any of the other papers had reached the street.
 Autoists returning from the game were amazed on reaching Bridgeport to find the complete stolv of the con- test they had just witnessed, told m detail in The Farmer, then on sale on the streets. The first automobile reached Bridgeport in less than 25 minutes after the referees whistle blew for the close of the contest, so the speed of The Farmers special edition may be judged.

DR. GRIFFIN AND
 ETHEL lENEVE MEET AND WEEP
Special from United Press }


 London, Nov. 21.-For the first time since he has been in custody, Dr. Crippen, who is sentenced to be hanged Wednesday for the murder of his wife, Belle Fillmore Crippen, broke completely down, late today, the cause being a visit to the Pentonville Jail by Miss Ethel Leneve, the girl, for love of whom Crippen killed his wife. The meeting between the two was pathetic in the extreme and a dramatic forerunner of their final meeting tomorrow. Miss Leneve was the first to weaken, today. She be- gan to weep and at the sight of her tears, all attempts at self-control, on the condemned mans part, were abandoned and he gave himself over to the first tears he has shed since his arrest. Crippen and the girl talked together for nearly half an hour, in the presence of two war dens. Crippen pleaded in vain to te left alone with the girl for a few minutes. At the conclusion of their interview Miss Leneve had to be as- sisted from the jail.
