232. 100 Women and Girls Work
ing for a Living in
Missouri.

jefferson City, Mo-, October
4.-Facts and figures dealing
with women and girls who were
following gainful occupations IN
Missouri at the commencement or
1915. the occupations they fol-
lowed and similar information,
are impaired in a Bureau OF La
Dor statistics bulletin, constltut-
ing advance information from the
1915 red book, given out for pub
lication today by Commissioner
John T. Fitzpatrick.
1t is estimated that in Missouri
on January /, 1915, there were H.
3s5. 1928 women and girls over ~
wears of age, and of this number
232, 72O were either following pro-
fessional.. pursuits, owned busl-
nesses, or were on salaries or
wages.
That the majority of women
and girls in Missouri, who are
forced to earn their living, are
still following pursuits given over
and peculiar to their sex Is
shown by the fact that approx
mately 8S,375 were either in do.
nestle or personal service. Oh
this number 1864 were house
hold servants, averaging IL hours
day of work and earning from
$l2 to $35 month and room and
board.
At the commencement OF 1919
it is figured, there were 23,2la
women in Missouri who were eth
err agents, canvassers, collectors
bookkeepers, cashiers, account
ants, shipping clerks, office AS.
sistants, stenographers and
tvpewriters. messengers, bundle
wrappers and cash girls. Stenog
raphers and typewriters alone
numbered 1929. While male
bookkeepers, cashiers and ac
countants outnumbered female!
nearly two to one, yet Is, $50 wo
men were thus employed, some be
ing paid the same salaries as mer
following the same occupations.

cause than cholera, yet any hog
suspected Of being sick should be
isolated Immediately from the
balance of the herd and confined
TO quarantine pen until it has
entirely recovered or died. This
pen should be enclosed so as to
keep out all other animals ON the
farm. The floor of the pen should
be covered with fresh air Stacked
lime.
Several of the lnMhermen Of
Bates and Cass counties are sell
ing lime to the farmers for dis
injecting purposes Every farm
Ter should secure several barrels
Of the lime as it is very efficient
for disinfecting purposes.
h The litter about the lots and
sheds should all be cleaned down
Ito hard surface. The lime can
be Stacked readily by pouring it
out in pile and adding water
slowly till the humps become pow
dered. The ground to be disin-
fected should be lightly covered
with the fresh Stacked lime.
1t is better to clean up the
premises and get rid of the chol-
era than to vaccinate every few
months.

tween St. Louis and Kansas City
lit was necessary to take three dit
ferent lines of railroad and one

| 10 minutes. Passenger fares We're
high. The fare between Kansas
City and St. Louis was $l4.5O
while at present it is $3.50. The
