A census bulletin recently Issued
gives very interesting exhibit OF the
rapid increase in the number of women
engaged IN gGipful occupation. In
1890 the whole number OF persons 80
engaged was 22,735, G6l, of whom

were females. In 1850 tho whole mum.

were male, aud 2:G47, l57 were females.
The percentage OF increase was 80. -
for ali clnsses. For mules the increase
was 27.Gl per cent, for females, 1888
per cont. In other words the number
OF women increased nearly twice as
fast hs that of the men.
Going back to 1870 the dispropor-
ton will he found to be very striking.
The Increase since 1870 has been rs. 4
per cent. for males and lib. 10 for fe-
males. 1t Is evident thai the increase
has been more rapid during the pnst
decade than that which preceded it.

It's worth while to note in what
classes of occupation this increase is
most rapid. In agriculture, mining
and fisheries the general increase since
1880 has been ~ per cent. males
l2.47, and for females 1927. In pro
! fessional services tho general Increase
for the ten years was Sc. 80; for males,
As. 90; Tor females. IS. 81 per cent. In

females 4 .l5 per cent. In trade and
transportation the number of males in

for males was 1901. and for females

increase of the number of females was
greater than that of males, but The
