to as many as ten per cent. of all gainful workers.
 The figures show that in 1910 do- nestle and personal service was the only general division of occupations in which the women outnumbered the men, there being in this general di- vision more than two women em- ployed to each man. In professional service there were four women em- ployed for every five men, a large proportion of the women being teach CTS. In clerical occupations one-third of the persons were women; in manufa curing and mechanical ln- dustries women constituted one in six; in agriculture, forestry, and animal husbandry, one. in seven; and in trade one in eight of the gainful workers. Women constituted only four per cent. of the persons engag- ed in transportation, three per cent. of those engaged in public service, and lone-tenth off one per cent. of those engaged in the extraction Of minerals.
