reasonable increase in the four
gaged jin some , aminl occupa- j , 1905 will be a banner year
tion;j;Thia, does not . include . for Oregon, and the spirit of
home work by women and girls.
lal90 ' there . were 13,914,571
females in the United States ,10
old and over engaged in some
gainful occupation. There were
,855,5$ more girls and women
teh year old and : over working
to earn tnoriey in 1900 than : in
1890, a gain of 3162 per cent.,,'
, In 1900 thereere. 23,754,205

money In the United States and
tn 1890 there were''l8,821,09()
an increase of money earners of
4,923,118, or a gain in ten years
of21.21.per cent. ""' ' ;
