Indiana University Studies 



It will be noted that the agricultural pursuits occupy 33.2 per 

 cent of all workers and that 29.9 per cent are engaged in manu- 

 facturing. These two groups contain 63.1 per cent of all workers 

 in Indiana; and, adding the related fields of trade and trans- 

 portation, the total is over 80 per cent. 



It is necessary to consider males and females separately in 

 this study as it is impossible in only very few occupations to offer 

 the same vocational education for the two sexes. 



Males in the Groups of Occupations 



Table 11, to which reference has already been made, lists the 

 number of males in the various groups, but Graph 4 presents the 

 facts more strikingly. Again it is noted that the agricultural 

 group contains the largest per cent, this being 38.1 per cent, while 

 the manufacturing and mechanical is second in rank, containing 

 30.8 per cent.
