Female Population of the World.

New 4 Orh 1eiegTdHi.
According TO the most reliable estimates
the world today contains 2eO,eO.e0 grown
women. Among civilized nations the
United States has actually the largest
share. its feminine population being 3d.
554, $40. Russia comes next with an adult
feminine population of %. 100000. Then a
long way after come the German empire
with 10,930.0o0; Austria, with 9.ss0,U0;
Great Britain, with s, 766, 900: France, with
s,5s6,000. and Italy, with 6.s50oo. Spain
comes next on the list with 4,l30,W0 of
the fair sex, and she is followed by Bel
GUM. with 1910, 600; Roumania, with j, 26o.-
coo: Sweden, with t170.oa; Portugal, with
$50 900 and Holland, with 100000. The
countries whose adult pOulation does not
reach Loo, 600 are Switzerland, which has
only $4,000: Norway, which has $4,000.
and Greece and Denmark, which are tied
d 10000.
In this estimate II will he noted that
the entire female population of the United
States is given and only the number of
grown women in the different countries
of Europe. AS a matter of fact, in pro-
portion 10 It's population this country has
fewer women than most of the others
mentioned.
The proportion of women to men in the
United States is greatest in New England,
where the women are in excess. 1t Is least
in the far West where the number or
men exceeds that of the women. Wyo-
ming has the smallest female population,
1862 New York the largest. H0s6o;
while Ii is said that one factory in New
England employs 1000 women:
