Of Interest to Women
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

The man to whom you intrust the
task of building your new house may
or may not be an artist. but the wom-
an who designs your hat is quite sure
to have within her makeup some
thing of that spark of genius. which
we call artistic ability. The fact is
that we twentieth century Americans
demand considerably more artistic
merit in our hats and frocks and
wraps than we do in the houses we
live in or the buildings we work in
Just why, it would be hard to say.
A moralist might find much to dilate
upon in the fact that in the middle
ages the highest artistic ability went
to the building of churches and the
enriching of them with beautiful
paintings and sculpture. while very
considerable proportion of this sort
of ability with US nowadays 1s di-
verted to the tasks of making femi-
nine apparel.
The Small-Town Mfniner.
Where in the small town. for in
stance, do you find really gifted
painter, or a local architect who rises
above the commonplace? Yet not in
frequently presiding over the local
millinery shop there works little
woman, an artist to her nlmple HnSer
tips. rarely appreciative of colors. in
nately sensitive to the beauties OF
line and formulating an interest IN
her work of making hats that is
really something apart from her de-
sire to gain her income thereby.
And it would be only fair If in the
art museums of future generation
there were kept examples of the
products of our dressmaking and mil
linery workrooms. For with US the
average woman usually satisfies her
craving for the beautiful more by
selecting and wearing beautiful
clothes than in selecting furniture
and vases-in part perhaps because
it is rather more difficult to find the
really beautiful chair or vase or jug
than the hat or frock that shows real
beauty of line, form or color.
There Must BE Unity.
Our milliners have got away from
the habit they once had of regarding
the hat itself apart from the trim
ming that went on it, and apart from
the face beneath it
For example, take the little hat
shown today welding together OF
gray velvet and gray ostrich hues,
the naturalization of the dream OF
a yeritable artist whose talents are
spent in the milliners workroom.
The milliner is an artist whose pig
ments are velvets and feathers,

Small herds are slowly but surely re-

In speaking of the future develop
ment of Montana as a stock-groWing
state, DR.. Butler expresses the idea
that the solution of the problem is
not in herd laws but in cooperative
organizations of small owners, in
both herding, summer pasturage and
in shipping their stock to markets,
in order to cut down expenses.
"As the days of the big ranges are
gone, there is one phase of the big
herd districts to which I look for
ward" he explains, and adds that it
is the creation in each or in two of
three counties, in the eastern part of
the state, of huge grazing districts.
where all owner in the territory may
ship their cattle for summer pastur-
age.
lie explains that summer paSturage
is necessary not only to exercise the
cattle and assure sturdy growth, but
also to afford grazing areas where
large herds may be fed. He advocates
a plan of grazing cattle on these
areas, under a fee system similar to
that of the forest service, the pro-
ceeds of which are to revert to the
state treasury and be used in further
ing the cattle industry in the state.

YEAR WE'RE RUNNING TOTAL
OF $4,000 HEAD
Market Was Sluggish and More Than
Half the Clip Was Consigned to
Commission Houses; Brought An
Average Price of IA 1-2 Cents
Per Pound.

In contrast with the livestock con
ditions of Montana during the pres
ent year, due generally to the res
tricted areas for grazing, there were
being fed in the state In the sprins
of 1901 nearly 100000 head O.
sheep OF which nearly so per cent, OF
about 1,615,000 were lambs, the
crop being about 500, 900 in excess oil
that of the previous year This was
shown by the report of the state
board of sheep commissioners taken
from data furnished by the commits
sioners of the various counties, as
of date March 1, 1901.
A notable feature of the year 1900
was that there was more wool
either consigned or unsold than dur
ing any previous year in the history
of the sheep business in the state.
More than half the wool of the state
was consigned to eastern commission
houses at an average price of from
IL to II cents per pound. This was
in strong contrast with the preceding
year when at the close of the market
there was less wool held than ever
before known, owing to the great
activity in the market. But in July
and August, 1900, the market was
so. dull that the sheepmen refused to
sell and either held their wool or
consigned it.
There was a big increase in the
number of pounds of wool clipped
over the previous year. There were
100000 pounds in 1900, against
23,5OO,000 pounds in 1899. This
brought the average up to nearly
seven pounds per head for 1900.
Interesting statistics came from
Chouteau and Valley counties. The
sheepmen of these counties received
higher prices for their clips actually
sold than any other counties in the
state. The reason was that a great
many of them contracted their clips
in the early part of 1900 to agents
OF eastern commission houses when
there was a bull in wool, and some
sold as high as 20 cents, while in the
of the state the average did not
exceed IA IL cents a pound. In Fer
the banner wool producing
county in the state, the increase in
WOOL production was estimated at one
pound per head over previous years.
\ similar increase was recorded from
'ther counties, a fact generally attri-
'uted to judicious breeding of the
took by sheepmen.
There were shipped into the state
.uring 1900 144,80O sheep. Includ-
d among these were between 5000
nd 10000 fine rams and a large
lumber of stock ewes. The number
f sheep slaughtered or sold was
early 100000. There we're 375, 900
sold at an average of nine cents
pound. 1t is estimated that $4,000
