This is a highly unusual cover for the era. For many years before and after this, the Era featured a standard design (a different one each year) with each month’s cover being printed on a different color paper.

Do you happen to have the name of the artist? It has a rather distinctive style.
I don’t. It’s obviously purchased stock from some supply house — the Salt Lake presses weren’t equipped for color covers like this in 1910, and just below the horseman on the right the word “Chicago” appears — but the actual name of the supply house or author doesn’t seem to be there.
Cool graphics, whoever was responsible.
