point to the fact that persons at work
especially females, have increased
very much faster than the population
at large. As result, the statement
shows that the proportion of workers
relative to the whole number of peo-
pie of the respective ages, was consid-
cradle greater in 1890 than at the pre-
ceding periods and that this increased
proportion is apparent for each of the
great classes of occupations, except
agriculture, fisheries and mining. All
this, the statement sets out, shows
very clearly the constantly increasing
disinclination of our population to
follow agricultural pursuits, tend
