    March, 1920. To the Chairman and Membeirs of the Aspull Urban District Council. Gentlemen, I beg to submit my Annual Report on the Health and Sanitary Administration of the Townsliip for the year ending December 31st, 1919. A. NATURAI. AND SOCIAL CONDITIONS OF THE DISTRICT. (1). POPULATION.—The census population in 1911 was 8,276. The population for 1919 has been divided by the Regis- trar-General into a “ Death-rate population ” and a “ Birth-rate population.” The “Death-rate population” excludes all non- civilian males, whether serving at home or abroad, and is esti- mated from the- rationing returns supplied by the Ministry of Food. The “ Birtli-rate population ” is intended to include all the elements of the population contributing to the birth-rate, and consists therefore of the “Death-rate, or Civilian population,” plus all non-civilians enlisted from this district. The Registrar-General’s figures for Aspull for the year 1919 were:— Death-rate Population ... ... 7,276 Birth-rate Population ... ... 7,579 The density of population in 1919 was 3.97 persons per acre.
