HALF WORLDS WORKERS
ENGAGED IN AGRICULTURE

Fully one-half ethe workers of the
world are now engaged in africulture,
according to figures published by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Of all occupied men and boys in
% leading countries, 51.4 per cent
are engaged in agriculture, and, of all
occupied women and girls, 506 per
cent follow agricultural pursuits, sta
tistics show. The figures do not include
the large agricultural populations of
Russia, China, Serbia Hungary, Argen-
tina, and Brazil.
The largest number of both male
and female agricultural workers in the
countries covered is in India, where
II, 100000 males and 34,OOO,O00 females
are employed and comprise 72 per cent
of the total number of workers. The
United States is second with II, 900 900
male and 100000 female agricultural
workers, or 20 per cent of all en-
ployed persons.
The figures were compiled to show
that problems concerning agricultural
workers affect larger number of
workers in almost every country than
those engaged in manufacturing, min
ing, numbering, or commerce, and in
a few countries more than in all these
industries combined.

Indians Called Olympics 'Sun-a-Do"

History of the name of the Olympic
mountains, which cover large area
in western Washington, was told by
Edmond S. Meany, professor of his
tory at the University of Washington,
in an article on the origin of geogra-
phic names of this state, recently
printed in the Washington Historical
Quarterly at the University.
"The Olympic mountains" accord
ling to Professor Meanys outline, "oc-
cupy large part of what is known
as the Olympic Harbor, the Strait Of
Juan de Fuca, the Pacific ocean and
Hood canal The mass of mountains
has no general axis and it is therefore
hardly proper to use the word Range"
as part of the name. The large group
of picturesque and glacier-torn peaks
receive it's proper name through cen
tury of evolution.
Mount Olympus, highest peak in
the range, was discovered by the Span
ish Captain, Juan Perez, in 1774, and
named by him Ell Cero de la Santa
Rosalia' The Spanish chart was not
published until years had elapsed. On
July 4, 1888, the British Captain, John
Meares, saw the mountain and named
it Mount Olympus. Captain George
Vancouver saw the mountain in 1892
and charted the name as given by
Captain Meares. The name has re-
mained on all subsequent maps.
The evolution began with Captain
George Vancouver, who in 1892, wrote
these two descriptions: The shores
of the harbour (New Dungeness) were
