BULL MOOSE PREPARE FOR
 FULL TICKET
Strong Probability That Candi- dates For Aldermen as Well
 as Legislature May Be Named

The Bull Moose. party viii very like
 ly put a complete local ticket in the field, nominating Aldermen. Selectmeu
 and Q. candidate for the office of Judge
 of Probate, as well as State Senators
 and Represents tives. Tlliss action seems inevitable as there is fast growing sentiment favoring 1t. There
 seems to be many in support of the plan and few opposed to it. Those opposed are only luke warm in their
 opposition and it is expected will readily give way to the sentiment in favor of a local ticket when they be- come convinced that there is strong sentiment favoring nominations for. the city officers.
 The chief objection to the plan on the part of those not in sympathy with it is that it will take too much time and work to push forward com plete ticket and consequently might prove disadvantageous to the state ticket as it will not allow for con centration of energy and efforts.
 The district chairmen and workers in the party will meet tonight in the party headquarters, ,PoH building, in Fairfield avenue, at which time a date for the city and town caucus will be selected. The caucus will be held next week. proba bly early in the week, when candidates for the State Senate and Representatives will be chosen Who the candidates win be is a mat ter as little known about among the Bull Moosers as among outsiders. Not a single name has as yet been men tfoned in connection with the nomina-
 The meeting tomorrow night Is the weekly meeting of the district chair men. These meetings are open 70 any one enrolled in the party who are to take part in the dtscus- sion and to offer suggestions Any formal vote that is taken, however. is confined to the district chairnen. An interesting meeting is auticipater as there is a great deal to be talked over Much interest in manifest in the coming caucus.
 Congressman E. J. Hill and hia friends are making crafty claims ac cording to some of the Ball Moose leaders which are aimed to discredit the sincerity of members Of the new pa rty Henry B. Stoddard said today that it had come to his attention that Hill had made state ment to the effect that MT. Stoddard would be found supporting the Bull Moose ticket up to election time and then on election day he would go tr the polls and cast his vote for the
 0emocr-atitc ticket. MT. HiH as sInes to know great deal about what way I shall vote- according to statements he is said to have made, said MT Sto6dard. "1f there Is any way that I can satisfy MT. Hill as to how I will vote I'd like to have ft suggested. I am going to vote the straight Progressive ticket. Any claim that I will vote the Democratic ticket is absolutely out of the ques- ton It's absurd. Such claims are only made for effect"

HEARST'S STANDARD OIL LETTERS ARE
 CALLED FORGERIES

New York, Oct That certain of the facsimile Standard Oil letters which are being published in "Hearsts Magazine are "forgeries' was charged in today's issue of Col Hers dated October 5.
 The accusation was based on the claim that five letters (dated one of them 1898. two of them 1900, two of them 19o4) are written on type writing machine of which the first instrune ent did not reach the market till the middle of 1905, and of which the particular letters and characteris- tics used in writing the five docu- ments were not in existence till 1907."
 Golfers neither makes the charge that Hearst forged the Standard Oil,' letters nor that he knowingly bought letters which had been forged.

# is said. on authority. that one-half
the dairy COWS in the United States do
not pay their way and their owners
would he better off il they sold them
and bought their milk and butter. Debit
the average COW with the interest on her
selling price and deduct one-tenth each
year from this price. az her age chance
is seven years: add to this the food con-
suinel. including that from the farm
the cost of care and milking. and then
credit her with her milk and the manure
and strike Il balance.
But there are cows and COWS. and the
best are none 100 good if they are kept
for profit. The milk output is increas-
ins as farmers are improving their
breeds. The last census estimates the
value of the Increased dairy products AT
slso0n,o10 per annum. This is due not
only to better stock. but to better hous-
ing and better care.
The iiolstein breed has a a,oU-year
record as ;hc best milk producer. and
for centuries the AYRSHIRE has held the
medal for producing most milk AT least
cost. while the Jerseys and Gucrnseys

ne! nave been famous as producers Of
butter.
Tie best dairy cattle are never the best
