During 1910 the trade in sheep and

by the phenomenal and unprecedented

Helena, Jan. l4.-Ihe Alley pass
bill permitting the issuance Of free
transportation to legislators and all
state officers was wiped out today in
the first storm of opposition that
has disturbed the house from the
lethargy into which it has fallen. It
was in the committee Of the whole
that the measure ran afoul. What
appeared to be slumbering opposi-
ton at best grew to such proper
tions that before consideration of
the second clause Of the bill had
been completed the measure met an
inglorious death when Representa-
tive Story Of Gallatin moved that
the enaeting clause be stricken out
and was sustained by the house on a
viva voce vote.
The bill permitted the issuance by
railroads Of free transportation to
state legislative, executive and judi
cial officers; to nurses, doctors and
relief crews to and from railroad
wrecks; to old soldiers and sailors
enroute to and from homes Of their
keeping, and permitted railroads to
exchange transportation with news
papers for advertising.
Upon the vote being taken. it was
found that the amendment was lost.
Immediately after the vote was
announced Story Of Gallatin jumped
to his feet and moved as an amend
nent to the bill that the enacting
clause be stricken out. His motion
at first was declared lost, but a di-
vision showed an error on the part
Of the chairman. When the commit
tee arose it reported the bill to the
house with the two amendments,
and the report was adopted.
The income tax amendment to the
constitution OF the Unlted States
was ratified by the lower house Of
the Twelfth legislative assembly this

There were extremely prosperous
times in the 1910 beef steer trade at
Chicago, as we'll as improbable peri
DDS. However, taking the year as a
whole, the average price at $6. SO was
never before recorded.
Marketing for 1910 at 3,052, 958,
stood 1913, 153 large than 1909, and the
largest since 1907. The average price
at Sc. 50 compared with the previous
record of S6. 35 In 1909, and displayed

at So 50, highest price by zoe per cwt.
in modern packing days.
Encouraged by the high prices Of a
year ago, feeders turned out big
crop Of heavy beeves and fairly
swamped the market. The trade early
in December was on a So. IS at 700 ba-
sis for prime heavy offerings, and fan
cy yearlings sold SOC per cwt. above

weight lots sold almost steadily down

Of the year, when best had to go at

the year. The December average price
of sc. &c was 20c lower than December,
1909, while the January average was
that much above January, 1909.
Bulls also made new high prices.
The years average price was 40,
comparing with Sc. 80 in 1909. In April
best butcher bulls sold up to $7.25 and
boIognas up to $3.50.

population into this grand total, we
get an average of 81 pounds per
capita, speaking IN round terms, for
1910, and about d like quantity for
1909. 1t is not assumed, Of course,
that each person necessarily con
sumes sugar equal to one-half hls
individual weight; but taking, the
total cosumption and comparing i
with the total population in the sec
tion known as continental United
States. the average yearly consunp-
ton Of sugar is found 81 pounds per
capita.
In fact, the people Of the Unit
Ell States are larger consumers Of
sugar per capita than those Of any
other country than England, for
which the latest figures show a con
sumption averaging Sc pounds per
capita. The next largest per capita
consumption is Ia Denmark, Ti
pounds; followed BY Switzerland, 81
pounds: Sweden, 81 pounds; and
Germany and Holland, each about
49, 49, pounds.
Mt only is the United States the
second largest sugar consumer per
capita, but the total amount con
sumed annually is much greater
than that Of any other country, ag-
gregating, as above indicated, more
than Z billion pounds per annum,
against about 4 billion pounds IN
England ana about 3 billion pounds
in Germany.
About one-half Of the sugar con
suned in the United States is
brought from foreign countries,
about one-fourth from our own IS
lands, ard the remaining one-fourth
produced in this country. The total
production Of sugar il the Z. S.
now amounts to II billion pounds a
year, OF which more. than / billion
pounds is beet sugar and about=a Of
a billion cane sugar. Il Is only re-
Gently that the production Of beet
sugar ia the United States has come
to exceed that Of cane sugar. n
1900 domestic production Of cane
sugar was twice as great as that Of
beet sugar, and 20 years ago was
more than so times as great; but the

The new way to wash clothes is the

THE HUGE FLOWERS
IN STRANGE COLORS

Perhaps 1T is the vogue for metal flow
ers that has caused a change from the
old-time made flowers, which initiated ma
ture as closely as possible. At any rate,
the new flowers are such as nature never
grew, but might well be proud OF If she
took the notion to try their colorings.
Blue roses and pink forget-me-nots with
green foliage and similar oddities have
been seen long before this day, and now
these are outdone by gorgeous blossoms
that match their unnatural leaves and
stems. Roses are the most conspicuous
among the flower collections - immense
soft blossoms, one of which would seem
enough to trim large hat.
Lettuce-green roses with foliage of ex-
actly the same light shade are one of the
novelties. Another green effect-fiower
and leaf alike-is just the tint of green
gold. Black and bronze changeable roses
are beauties, and purple in all its varied
richness dyes many great blossom on a
hat of the same tone. Grapes of gold
silver, pure white, purple, orange and all
sorts of other hues are favorite decora-
ton.
In direct contrast with these impossible
but luxuriant blooms some hats are trim
med with tight little old fashioned
ettes and grasses.
While most of the lovely flowers are
made for millinery purposes, this is not
really flower year in the hat world. If
a woman discards blossoms on her hat.
however, she at once finds a place for
them in some other part of her toilet
Accordingly, the most extreme of the new
flowers has not long to wait for chance
to show it's beauty and dispense its per-
fume-the best, of course, are delicately
scented with appropriate perfumes. The
evening gown, the evening cloak and the
evening fur set and even the same gar
ments for afternoon wear, are trimmed
with flowers.
A single splendid rose or a cluster of
flowers may be caught apparently by
chance-on almost any part of gown.
It may nestle in the corsage. 1t may be
tucked into the girdle far around at one
side, it may rest precariously half way
down the side of the skirt or 1t may fall
on the train at any part. high or low. in
the center or at the edge. 1t may be
part of the fastening of the evening
cloak. 1t may enhance the fur collar on
the carriage wrap. tucked near the cheek
of the wearer. Or backed by star of
white maline and possibly combined with
foliage. it may sit squarely in the center
front of the handsomest mum.

Arrangement of Scarf.

Miladi does not seem to be aiming
at keeping herself warm with the new
scarfs Not only are some Of the So
called fur scarfs made mostly of such
diaphonous materials as lace and chif-

knot of the pelt as an ornament. but
the new way of wearing some of the
extra LONG and broad ones leaves the
throat and one shoulder entirely ex-
posed and makes Of the scarf itself
