SUMMARY.
This report, based on information obtained from representative es
tablishments, shows the full-time weekly earnings, the full-time hours of
labor per week, and the rates of wages (or earnings) per hour in the
principal occupations of the hosiery and underwear industry of the
United States. Figures showing full-time hours of labor per week
and rates of wages (or earnings) per hour are presented for the years
1907 to 1914, inclusive, and full-time weekly earnings for the years
1910 to 1914, inclusive.
In addition, this report presents material relating to the varia
tions in the amount of employment furnished by this industry in the
year ending with March, 1914, (p. 14), and certain data concerning
the use of representative statistics (p. 31).
Earlier reports of this Bureau1 have presented wages and hours
of labor in the industry from 1890 to 1913 under the designation
hosiery and knit goods. The data, however, in those reports were
secured from establishments whose product was principally hosiery
and underwear.
Summarized briefly, the average full-time weekly earnings of the
employees in this industry in 1914 were 2 per cent higher than in 1913,
8 per cent higher than in 1912, and 12 per cent higher than in 1911 or
1910.
The average full-time hours of labor per week in 1914 were 1 per
cent lower than in 1913, 3 per cent lower than in 1912, and 5 per cent
lower than in 1911 or 1910.
The average rates of wages or earnings per hour in 1914 were 3
per cent higher than in 1913, 11 per cent higher than in 1912, 18 per
cent higher than in 1911, and 19 per cent higher than in 1910. Owing
to the reduction of hours, the increase in full-time weekly earnings
between 1910 and 1914 was not so great as in rates of wages per hour.
1 Previous investigations of wages and hours of labor in hosiery and underwear manufacturing have been
made and published by the Bureau, as follows: Nineteenth Annual Report, covering 1890 to 1903; Bulletin
No. 59 (July, 1905), covering 1903 and 1904; Bulletin No. 65 (July, 1906), covering 1904 and 1905; Bulletin No.
71 (July, 1907), covering 1905 and 1906; Bulletin No. 77 (July, 1908), covering 1906 and 1907; Bulletin No.
134 (August, 1913), covering 1907 to 1912; and Bulletin No. 154 (May, 1914), covering 1907 to 1913.

2 “ Other employees ” include all occupations in the mills not specified separately in the table. Certain
mills make hosiery, others underwear, and a few both hosiery and underwear, which distinctions are
preserved in the table.
In this table it is seen that in 1914 the average full-time weekly
earnings of males engaged in the industry, represented by 10 occupa
tions, varied from $8.45 for knitters, footers, or toppers, hosiery, to
$22.31 for knitters, full-fashioned hosiery.
8
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
The average full-time weekly earnings of females in 1914, repre
sented by 23 occupations, varied from $6.80 for press hands, hosiery,
to $10.87 for buttonhole makers, underwear.
Summary figures for the several years back to 1907 are presented
in Table I (pp. 69 to 82). The data for the years 1907 to 1911 were
secured in 1911. Owing to the difficulty of finding establishments
having satisfactory records extending back for a period of years, and
also owing to the amount of work involved, data for 1907 to 1909
were secured from a smaller number of establishments than have
furnished data for the later years.
According to the plan of Table I, direct comparisons can be made
properly only between two or more successive years where the data
are for identical establishments. Data for successive years from
identical establishments are grouped together.
The data are for one pay-roll period in each year, the period ending
nearest March 31 being selected, except in a few establishments in
which conditions in March were abnormal or data for that month
were not available.
The figures for the years from 1907 to the first presentation for
1913 are reproduced from Bulletin No. 154. The average full-time
weekly earnings have not been computed for the period 1907 to 1909.
It will be observed that the average full-time weekly earnings gen
erally are not exactly the same as the product of the average rate of
wages per hour and the average full-time hours per week. This
difference is explained and illustrated on page 28.
Wages and hours of labor often differ materially in different estab
lishments, hence the inclusion or exclusion of an establishment in a
group, if the wages and hours therein differ greatly from the average,
may raise or lower the average for the group. In Table I it is seen
that the average full-time weekly earnings of boarders in 32 estab
lishments were $10.74 in 1911 and $12.04 in 1912. In 41 establish
ments they were $11.92 in 1912 and $12.15 in 1913. Therefore the
inclusion of 9 additional establishments changed the average weekly
earnings quoted for 1912 from $12.04 to $11.92. Consequently, it
would not be correct to state that the increase was from $10.74 in
1911 to $12.15 in 1913. The movement from one year to another is
indicated with a greater degree of certainty by the figures for iden
tical establishments. The difference between $10.74 and $12.04 rep
resents the increase from 1911 to 1912, and the difference between
$11.92 and $12.15 represents the change between 1912 and 1913 as
nearly as can be determined from the data available. Although the
number of establishments from which data for boarders were obtained
for 1912 and 1913 was the same as that from which data were obtained
for 1913 and 1914, the establishments in the two groups were not
identical, and the earnings for 1913, as shown for the two groups,
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 190*7 TO 1914— KNIT GOODS.
9
vary slightly. This explanation applies to the other occupations as
well.
Owing to the change in the number of establishments from year
to year, it is difficult to make a comparison of the actual data over
a period of several years, or to get an exact measure of the changes.
To aid in the making of such a comparison, relative (or index) num
bers have been computed from the averages in Table I for full-time
hours per week, rates of wages per hour, and full-time weekly earn
ings for each occupation for the years 1910 to 1914, inclusive. These
relative numbers, which are shown in the following table, are simply
percentages in which the figures for 1914 are taken as the base, or
100 per cent. Thus the facts for each preceding year are brought
into direct comparison with the facts for the latest year available,
namely, 1914.
In the preceding table (p. 6), 33 specified occupations are
shown, while in the following table only 26 occupations appear. The
reason for this is that, for years prior to 1914, data for 7 occupations
common to both hosiery and underwear were shown for the two
combined. In presenting data for 1914, however, these occupations
have been shown for the two divisions of the industry separately,
except when comparisons with preceding years have been made,
when it was necessary to combine the data as was formerly done.
In addition, information for 1914 was secured for “ other employees”
besides those of the selected occupations named, and data for these
employees appear in the tables for 1914. Thus in all tables where
data for more than one year are shown there will be fewer occupations
than in tables for 1914 alone.
The relative for each year preceding 1914 is the per cent that the
average in that year is of the average for 1914. For example, the
table shows that the relative full-time weekly earnings of boarders
in 1910 were 87 per cent of weekly earnings in 1914. In 1911 the
weekly earnings decreased to 85 per cent of the earnings in 1914.
In 1912 they had increased to 95 per cent, and in 1913 to 97 per
cent of the earnings in 1914.
The relative full-time hours per week of boarders decreased from
103 in 1910 to 100 in 1914; that is, the average full-time hours of
work per week in 1910 were 103 per cent of the average full-time
hours in 1914. The heavy-faced figures of the table are relative
numbers, and may all be read in like manner. The method of com
puting these relative numbers from the averages of the hours and
wages shown in Table I is explained on page 28.
In addition to the relative numbers in this table, percentages have
been computed showing the per cent of increase or decrease in 1914
as compared with each preceding year back to 1910, while in another
column is given the per cent of increase or decrease in each year
compared with the year immediately preceding.
10
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
Referring, for example, to the weekly earnings of boarders, it is
seen that in 1914 they were 3 per cent higher than in 1913, 5 per cent
higher than in 1912, etc., and that they were 2 per cent lower in 1911
than in 1910, 12 per cent higher in 1912 than in 1911, 2 per cent
higher in 1913 than in 1912, and so on.

In the above table it will be observed that the general tendency
is toward a reduction of working hours and an increase in rates of
wages per hour and of earnings per full week. This table does not
consider the amount of work afforded employees each year or the
variation in the volume of employment from year to year. The
relative full-time hours per week indicate the change in the hours of
labor of employees working full time, but do not reflect in any way
the greater or less amount of full-time work afforded. This point
is further discussed on page 27.
From the last paragraph of the table above, which is a summary
of the data for all occupations combined, it is seen that the relative
or index number for full-time hours per week in the industry as a
whole decreased from 105 in 1910 to 100 in 1914, or, in other words,
full-time hours per week were 105 per cent in 1910 of what they were
in 1914. The relative or index number for rates of wages per hour
increased from 84 in 1910 to 100 in 1914. Owing to the reduction of
hours the increase in full-time weekly earnings was slightly less than
the increase in wages per hour, the increase being from an index of
89 in 1910 to 100 in 1914.
In examining the relative or index numbers for the several occupa
tions and for the industry as a whole in the table above, it will be
observed that they have been computed with 1914 taken as the
base, or 100 per cent. The reasons for using the data for the most
recent year available as the base for relative or index numbers are:
First, the most recent data are probably the most accurate and
14

representative; second, comparisons are more often made between
recent years than between any other, and relatives based upon a
recent year are thus more valuable than those based upon a period
more remote; and, third, this method permits the inclusion of new
or additional occupations that it may be found desirable to intro
duce, and the computing of relatives for such occupations for the
years for which data are available, on the same base as that upon
which the relatives for other occupations are computed. This could
not be done, of course, if the relatives were based upon data for some
former year for which data concerning such occupations were not
available.
VARIATION IN EMPLOYMENT DURING YEAR.
Statistics concerning unemployment are of two general classes:
First, figures relating to the extent of unemployment as of a certain
date, and, second, figures relating to the extent of unemployment of
individuals during some stated period, generally one year. An
investigation of unemployment under either of the above classes
involves much personal inquiry and consequent expense.
In connection with the present study an attempt was made, how
ever, to gather information concerning the volume and regularity of
employment in this industry during the year ending March, 1914,
and the amount paid out in wages during the same period. Such
figures do not, of course, show the number of unemployed desiring
work in an industry. Furthermore, the loss of employment in an
establishment does not necessarily mean unemployment, as the
employees may find work elsewhere in the same or some other in
dustry. The material presented, while not strictly data concerning
unemployment, may be accepted, however, as indicative of the
amount of unemployment in the industry covered.
Data were obtained from 75 establishments covering the number
of days the plant was in operation, the number of employees on the
pay roll, and the amount of the pay roll for each pay-roll period for a
year; also a statement of the number of days the plant was closed
during the year, by causes.
The following table shows the average number of days in opera
tion, the total number of employees, the total amount of pay roll,
and the average earnings per employee in two-week periods for 35
hosiery establishments, 36 underwear establishments, and 4 estab
lishments manufacturing both hosiery and underwear, with a sum
mary giving aggregate figures for the three groups of 75 establish
ments combined. In the summary are also given the per cents that
the figures of each pay-roll period are of the averages for the year.
In this table the data have been reduced to a two-week basis. This
was necessary because in a considerable number of establishments the
regular pay-roll period covers two weeks and it was not practicable
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914---- KNIT GOODS.
15
to separate the figures so as to show them for one week. Hence, for
establishments which have a weekly pay roll the figures for two con
secutive pay rolls were combined so as to bring all to the same basis.
The amounts of the two weekly pay rolls were added, and the number
of employees used was the average of the numbers in the two weeks.
The figures show a striking uniformity in the volume of employment
in the industry in the 12 months covered. It will be noticed that
there is very little variation either in the average number of days
in operation, the number of employees, or the average earnings per
employee, except as the latter are affected by the number of days in
operation. For example, for the period ending July 5 and the period
ending January 3 it will be seen that the earnings per employee are
considerably lower than for other periods, but it will be observed that
both of these periods include holidays which are almost universally
observed, and the average days in operation were less than in other
periods.
The column “ average days in operation” has reference to the estab
lishments as a whole, and not to the number of employees shown in
the next column. For example, the average days in operation, of the
75 establishments, in a given pay-roll period may have been only
10.3, while the employees who worked in the establishments actually
in operation during that period may have averaged 11.7 days.

1 Not including pay-roll periods during which factory was idle all the time.
2 Including 3 establishments closed 1 week during each of 2 months, and 1 establishment closed 1 week
during each of 3 months.
The table shows the months during which the largest pay roll and
the smallest full-time and smallest actual pay-rolls occur, and the
number of establishments closed down entirely for one or two weeks
in any month. It will be seen that the largest pay rolls and smallest
full-time pay rolls are well distributed through the various months
of the year. It will further be seen that in each month, except
one, at least 2 establishments had their largest pay roll of the
year, and that in each month at least 3 establishments had their
smallest full-time pay roll. The second column shows that the
smallest actual pay roll occurred in the month of December in 16 of the
75 establishments, and in January in 28 establishments. Reference
to the schedules from which these facts have been taken shows that
in almost every case the establishment was closed during part of the
pay-roll periods covering the latter part of December and the early
part of January, so that these small pay rolls appear to be caused by
the general industrial inactivity of the holiday season rather than by
any so-called dull season of the industry.
It will also be noted that while 16 of the smallest pay rolls fell in
December, 15 of the largest pay rolls occur during the same month.
This fact has been explained by the statement that during the early
part of December a desire on the part of the employees to earn addi-
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 190*7 TO 1914— KNIT GOODS.
19
tionai money for the approaching holiday season causes greater pro
duction and consequently larger earnings, especially on the part of
pieceworkers, while during the latter part of the month, as stated
above, there is a falling off on account of the holidays themselves.
The figures taken as a wholG seem to indicate that the industry
had no especially dull or active season in the year April, 1913, to
March, 1914. Attention is called to the fact that the same month
may show a considerable number of both large and small pay rolls,
because as a rule each pay-roll period covers only one or at most
two weeks, so that it would be possible for an establishment to have
a very large and a very small pay roll in the same month.
The next table shows the number of days each of the 75 establish
ments reporting was in operation during the year, and the number
of days idle, by specified causes. It will be seen that aside from
holidays and vacations, which are the result of custom or of an
accepted policy of the establishment, the number of days idle was
comparatively small, the average for the year for the 75 establish
ments shown being only 5 days. Including holidays and vacations,
the average number of days idle during the year April, 1913, to
March, 1914, was 14.2.

Prior to 1914 the hours actually worked by time workers in the pay
period covered were not copied from the pay rolls. When data for
1914 were secured, however, the hours actually worked by both time
and piece workers were secured, and the results are presented in
General Table VI, which shows for time and piece workers separately
the average full-time hours, the average hours actually worked, and
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914---- KNIT GOODS.
21
the number of employees working each classified per cent of full time.
This table is divided into two sections, one composed of data from
establishments having weekly pay rolls and the other including only
those establishments which have two-week rolls. A few establish
ments which pay their employees semimonthly have been omitted
altogether from Table VI.
The following summary table shows the number and per cent of
employees working certain classified per cents of full time, by States.
The data from one-week and two-week pay rolls are of necessity
kept separate. The probability of full-time decreases with the
length of the pay-roll period, and, further, by way of example, the
absence of an employee for one week of a two-week pay roll means 50
per cent of employment, while in an establishment having a one-week
roll the absence of an employee for a week causes his entire absence
from the pay roll.

BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
The following table shows for each of 76 establishments the work
ing time of males and females throughout the year. Any changes
of two weeks’ or more duration are shown, and not only are the
total hours per week given, but also the hours per day from Mon
day to Friday, inclusive, and the hours on Saturday, which in every
case except 4 are less than for the other days of the week. It will be
seen that there are very few fluctuations in the hours shown, and
that aside from reductions which appear to be permanent there were
lew changes.

Of 82 establishments from which data were secured, 5 reported
extra rates of pay for overtime work. These extra rates were from
one-fourth to one-half of the regular rate and apply to time workers
only.
It was reported that 7 establishments guaranteed a minimum wage
for pieceworkers. In most instances these guaranties applied to only
one or two occupations and the guaranty ranged from $5 to $9 a
week. Seven establishments reported some welfare work in con
nection with their employees. Usually this was confined to provisions
for first aid in case of sickness or accident and for rest rooms, also for
lunch rooms where the employees could eat the lunches which they
had brought with them or could buy at nominal prices lunches pro
vided by the establishment. In a few cases coffee or articles of food
were served free. In a few cases it was found that establishments had
gone to considerable expense in equipping and maintaining a music
room, pool rooms, baths, etc. One establishment was reported as
having a clubhouse in which there were dormitories, pool rooms,
dining rooms, shower baths, and dance hall, and where employees
could get meals with or without lodging at very reasonable rates.
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914— KNIT GOODS.
25
EXPLANATION OF SCOPE AND METHOD,
This report includes establishments engaged primarily in the
manufacture of hosiery or underwear. Data are not included from
knit goods establishments whose main products are mittens, gloves,
caps, mufflers, athletic goods, shawls, specialties, etc. All informa
tion in the report was secured from pay rolls of the various estab
lishments by the agents of the Bureau. The number of establish
ments from which data were secured has varied considerably during
the years included, as follows:
1907 to 1910........................................................ .15 identical
1910 and 1911......................................................62 identical
1911 and 1912......................................................62 identical
1912 and 1913......................................................69 identical
1913 and 1914.......................................................67 identical

In addition to the 67 establishments from which data were secured
for 1913 and 1914, data were secured from 15 establishments for 1914
only, making a total of 82 establishments from which data for 1914
are presented. Figures based upon data for all establishments cov
ered in 1914 are included in certain tables of this report, as indicated
by prefatory notes.
The data for 1907 to 1911 were secured in 1911 and the number of
establishments included in the full period from 1907 to 1910, inclu
sive, was limited, owing to the difficulty of finding establishments that
had preserved satisfactory records for those years and also to the
large amount of work involved. Data were not secured from even a
greater number of establishments in the more recent years because of
the limited funds available for the purpose. The establishments
vary from year to year, as establishments go out of business or cease
to be representative, and new establishments must be substituted.
Occasionally occupations are dispensed with in a factory or new occu
pations are introduced, and sometimes data are not available for all
occupations in a factory.
Data for a group of establishments in any year will not be precisely
the same as for a different group in the same year, even though nearly
all of the establishments may be common to both groups. In using
the actual figures in this report comparison from year to year should
be made only between data coming from identical establishments. In
the tables the data from identical establishments are grouped together.
Except where noted, data from an establishment are not included in
the report unless the information for at least two years is available.
In selecting establishments from which to secure data the Bureau
undertook to represent all States in which hosiery and underwear
manufacturing is of material importance, the measure of importance
being the number of employees as reported by the United States Cen
sus of Manufactures. The table which follows shows, by States, the
26
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
number of employees in this industry as reported by the United States
Census, 1910; the number of establishments from which the Bureau
secured data for 1914; and the number of employees in such estab
lishments.
The census figures inseparably combine other knit goods with
hosiery and underwear under the title “ Hosiery and knit goods.”

According to the census of 1910, more than 91 per cent of the total
number of employees in the industry are found in the States in which
the establishments furnishing information to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics are located. The number of employees for which the
Bureau secured 1914 data and for which detailed information for
1914 is presented in this report was equal to 25 per cent of the total
in the industry in 1910. The pay-roll period taken each year was
that ending nearest March 31, except in a few establishments where
March data were not available or abnormal conditions made it desir
able to take a pay-roll period for some other time of the year.
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914---- KNIT GOODS.
27
The rates of wages per hour appearing in the tables include the
wages of time workers and the earnings of pieceworkers. All time
rates by the day or week have been reduced to rates per hour, and
the earnings of pieceworkers or of persons working at both time and
piece rates have been reduced to rates per hour by dividing the
earnings by the hours worked. The time workers and piecework
ers of each occupation are combined as one group in General Tables
I, II, and IV. In General Tables III, V, and VI the data for time
workers and for pieceworkers are shown separately. This separa
tion of time and piece workers was made to show what difference
there might be in the wages of these two classes of workers in the
several occupations. A majority of the employees in this industry
are paid at piece rates.
In a considerable number of establishments visited in years preced
ing 1913 the records of the hours worked by individual pieceworkers
were so inadequate that it was not deemed advisable to attempt to tab
ulate classified rates of wages or earnings per hour. In 1913, however,
where there was no record regularly kept in the factory of the actual
time worked by pieceworkers, the firms at the request of the Bureau
kept a special record for the pay-roll period taken, making it possi
ble to present classified rates. This plan was also followed in 1914,
and classified rates are shown in General Tables IV and V.
Prior to 1914 data were secured only for employees in certain
selected occupations. In 1914, however, data were obtained for all
employees in the establishments, and in addition to the selected
occupations presented as heretofore, data are shown for all “ other
employees” in General Tables III, V, and VI.
A change in the earnings per hour of pieceworkers does not of
necessity indicate a change in piece rates. Without a change in
piece rates, a change in methods or of machinery, a speeding up, or
more steady work resulting from greater volume of business may
increase the hourly earnings; or, on the other hand, changes in meth
ods, a slowing down in speed, or a lull in business may reduce the
hourly earnings. Varying intervals of waiting for work while on
duty may also affect hourly earnings.
The full-time hours of labor per week shown in the general tables
of the report are the regular hours of work of the occupations under
normal conditions in the establishments. The figures given show the
average full-time hours per week of the employees in each occupation
and the number of employees whose full time came within specified
classification limits. The working time is the hours on duty, includ
ing intervals of waiting for work. The full-time hours per week and
the relatives based thereon do not in any way indicate the extent of
unemployment. Employees may work overtime, broken time, or be
laid off, or a temporary reduction may be made in working hours
without such change affecting the full-time hours per week as pre
sented in this bulletin.
28
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
The full-time weekly earnings tabulated are the earnings per week
of employees working full time, or the earnings on broken time re
duced to equivalent earnings for a full week. In considering changes
in full-time earnings per week, notice should also be taken of changes
in full-time hours of labor per week. A reduction in the hours of a
pieceworker may reduce his earnings in a week and leave his earnings
per hour unchanged, while a reduction of hours for a week worker
will, if his weekly rate remains the same, increase his rate per hour.
The averages of full-time hours per week, rates of wages per hour,
and full-time weekly earnings are computed by adding the data for
each individual employee and dividing the total by the number of
employees.
It will be observed that the average full-time weekly earnings gen
erally are not exactly the same as the result that would be obtained
by multiplying the average rate per hour by the average hours per
week, owing to the fact that hourly rates for individual employees
are based on varying hours per week, which has the effect of changing
the relative weighting of the wages of the several employees.
A hypothetical illustration shows the difference:

The method used in computing the relative or index numbers may
best be explained by an illustration. Take the rates of wages per

The rate per hour for 1914 is taken as the base (100), then $0,200
divided by $0,199 equals 101, the relative for 1913. The ratio of
1912 to 1913 is $0,194 to $0,203. The relative for 1913, just deter
mined, 101, multiplied by $0,194 and the result divided by $0,203
equals 96, the relative for 1912. The relative numbers were carried
to one decimal place during the process of computation, but are
entered in the table as whoie numbers.
The method of computing relative numbers over a period of years,
as illustrated above, is used because of the changes of establishments
which occur.
Any method of computing a series of relative numbers should take
into account changes in establishments from year to year, as changes
naturally occur, some establishments discontinuing operations or
ceasing to be representative, and new establishments entering the
field. The method explained above, bringing in the new establish
ments, has been followed in computing the relatives in this report.
Otherwise no use could have been made in the relative or index of
the data from the additional establishments obtained for the later
years.
Of the 21 establishments in the above table reporting data for
male rib knitters for 1912 and 1913, 4 dropped out later and only 17
reported for the entire period. The average rates of wages per hour
for the 17 establishments reporting for the entire period are shown
also with relatives computed therefrom. As might be expected,
these relatives differ from the relatives based on the greater number
of establishments. Presumptively they are not as nearly representa
tive as the relatives based on the greater number of establishments,
but they are given here as an illustration of the difference shown
by relatives based on different amounts of data.
A word of caution is given as to the use of relative numbers. The
per cent of increase or decrease from one year to another is not the
difference between the relative numbers for the years. Thus, as
shown in the table on page 13, the full-time weekly earnings in this
industry increased from 89 in 1910 to 100 in 1914, an increase of 11
in the relative for 1914 over the relative for 1910, which number is
12 per cent of 89, thus making the increase in full-time earnings per
week of 12 per cent in 1914 over 1910.
The relative numbers for the industry as a whole covering 1910 to
1914 are computed directly from the average hours of labor, rates
of wages per hour, and weekly earnings of all employees in all occu
pations combined. In other words, the relatives for the industry
have been computed in the same manner as the relatives for each
occupation.
In this report, figures are shown for 21 occupations: Seven are
common to the making of both hosiery and underwear; 8 pertain to
30
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
hosiery making only; and 6 to underwear making only. In the pre
sentation of data for 1914, as far as possible, the 7 occupations com
mon to hosiery and underwear have been divided, and the data for
each division shown separately, thus making 28 occupations for 1914.
While some of the mills do their own spinning and nearly all do
dyeing, figures are not shown for such departments. The wages of
spinners and dyers are fairly covered in bulletins of the Bureau relat
ing to the cotton and woolen industries.
The principal departments or subdivisions in order of work in a
hosiery mill are usually winding, knitting, looping, mending, board
ing, pressing, and folding. In an underwear mill the principal
departments in order are usually winding, knitting, cutting, seaming,
finishing, boarding, pressing, and folding.
The occupations for which data are presented are:
Boarders, hosiery.
Boarders, underwear.
Buttonhole makers, underwear.
Button sewers, underwear.
Cutters, hand, underwear.

Hosiery and underwear manufacturing is to a very great extent a
woman’s industry. Many occupations are filled entirely or mainly
by females.
Of the 28 occupations reported 18 are so largely filled by women
that wages are presented for females only. In five of the occupations
the number of each sex warrants the presentation for each sex sepa
rately. In five of the occupations, knitters, full-fashioned hosiery,
boarders, hosiery, and boarders, underwear, pressers, hosiery, and
pressers, underwear, men are employed almost exclusively. Taking
into account the fact that some occupations are found in the manu
facture of both hosiery and underwear, and that both males and
females are found in the same occupation, there are 33 specified occu
pational presentations made for 1914. For descriptions of the occu
pations, the reader is referred to Bulletin No. 154 of this Bureau.
In addition to the text tables already shown, six general tables are
given as follows:
Table I.— Average rates of wages per hour, average full-time
weekly earnings, and average and classified full-time hours per week
in the United States, by years, 1907 to 1914.
WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914---- KNIT GOODS.

Table II.— Average rates of wages per hour, average full-time
weekly earnings, and average and classified full-time hours per week
in each State, by years, 1913 and 1914.
Table III.— Average rates of wages per hour, average full-time
weekly earnings, and average and classified full-time hours per week,
for pieceworkers and time workers, by States, 1914.
Table IV .— Average full-time hours per week, and average and
classified rates of wages per hour, by States, 1913 and 1914.
Table V.— Average full-time hours per week, and average and
classified rates of wages per hour, for pieceworkers and time workers,
by States, 1914.
Table VI.— Average full-time hours, average hours actually worked,
and number of employees working each classified per cent of full
time, for pieceworkers and time workers, by States, 1914.
In Table I, in addition to actual data, percentages computed there
from are given.
When available data for a State are sufficient to warrant presenta
tion such data are presented by States in Tables II, III, IV, V,
and VI.
Tables I, III, V, and VI include data from some establishments
from which information was obtained for 1914 only. The data in
Tables III, V, and VI are also so arranged as to show the figures
separately for piece and time workers.
Owing to the fact that the pay-roll period in some establishments
is one week and in others two weeks, Table VI is shown in two sec

cluding two-week pay rolls.
REPRESENTATIVE STATISTICS.
Much of the material published by this Bureau in its several bulle
tins concerning wages and hours of labor is of the kind that may
be designated as “ representative” statistics. The expense is so
great that it is practically impossible to collect and compile data
from all establishments in the United States in any of the large
industries. Further, the expense involved makes prohibitive the
task of covering pay rolls for an entire year even in the establishments
from which information is obtained. In much of the wage work of
the Bureau it has been the policy to visit only representative estab
lishments and get wage data for a representative pay-roll period in
each year. Such representative data for each year have been com
piled and brought into comparison in making a study of the trend
of wages and hours of labor over a period of years. In undertaking
the present study, the Bureau desired to make a test as to the repre
sentative character of data for a selected pay-roll period in a year.
For this purpose the Bureau undertook to collect data covering all
pay rolls in certain establishments for a full year.

BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
As bearing 011 this question the following table is given, showing,
for each of seven establishments, the number of employees and the
average rate of wages per hour, in each occupation, by pay-roll
periods, for one year. The pay-roll periods in five establishments
are for one week, and in two establishments for two weeks. These
seven establishments were chosen because they keep regularly for
their own purposes a record of the hours worked by each employee,
and it was thus possible to obtain data from which accurate averages
could be computed for the entire year except in two instances where
the pay rolls for the early part of the year were not available
and the data were obtained for only a portion of the year. It will
be seen that there is great uniformity in the number of employees
and in the average hourly rates of any given occupation throughout
the year. When considerable variations in hourly rates do occur it
will usually be found that the number of employees in the occupation
is so small that a change in the earnings of even one person may ma
terially affect the average for the occupation.
The figures in boldface indicate the pay-roll data that entered into
general wage data for 1913 and 1914, respectively. While the data
for these selected pay-roll periods differ slightly from the data for
others, they correspond so closely to the data for other pay-roll
periods in the same season that the use of such representative
statistics appears to be fully warranted.

BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
The following table shows for each of two establishments, not only
the number of employees and the average rate of wages per hour,
but also the number of employees earning each classified rate per
hour, in each occupation, by pay-roll periods, the figures for one
establishment covering one year and for the other establishment 10
months.
In the second establishment some of the employees are paid one
week and others the following week, which accounts for the differing
endings of the pay-roll periods in some of the occupations.
The figures in boldface are the selected representative data that
entered into the general wage data for the year. This table, like the
preceding, seems fully to warrant the use of representative statistics.
Establishments No. 1 on pages 32 and 50 are identical, as are estab
lishments No. 2 on pages 35 and 61.

WAGES AND HOURS OF LABOR, 1907 TO 1914---- KNIT GOODS.
67
A test has also been made of different methods of computing
average wages. For a table of classified rates, the rate for each per
son must of necessity be computed. In the general tables and the
tables on pages 50 to 66, where average and classified rates are
shown, the earnings as taken from the pay rolls were all reduced to
an hourly basis by dividing the earnings of each person by the hours
worked in the case of pieceworkers and in the case of time workers
by dividing the time rate, when other than by the hour, by the hours
upon which it is based.
In the table on pages 32 to 49, where only average rates are shown,
the averages for establishments 3 to 7 were obtained by adding the
actual earnings of the several individual employees and dividing the
result by the total hours worked by all employees. The result in
the first instance is an average of the rates earned, without taking
into account the hours worked. In the latter instance the result is
the average earnings per hour, consideration (weighting) being given
the number of hours worked by each employee. If all employees
worked the same number of hours, the results in each case would be
the same. Even when, as in practice, there is a great variation in
the number of hours worked, the results are so nearly the same as to
render the difference practically negligible. This is illustrated by
the following table, which shows for three typical establishments,
Nos. 3, 4, and 6, the average rate for each occupation computed by
each of the two methods mentioned. It will be seen that the differ
ence in the results by the two methods is very slight in nearly all cases,
while in many cases the averages are the same.
