J Z X P I i A . N ’A . T O l t Y .—The design o f this exhibit is to
point out the most numerously followed occupations in
each state, and to 6how in addition the exten t to which
they are respectively followed. It also furnishes a general
analysis o f total occupations in each state. The ratios are
based on the total population and not upon the population
over ten years o f age, as in the preceding exhibits. The
term “ laborers,” as here used, is thus explained in the
Census R ep o rt: In the agricultural districts many enumerators have reported ‘ agricultural laborers’ simply as
‘ laborers.’ ”
