    ANNUAL MEDICAL REPORT FOR 1900. coooccooooocoooccooocccccoooccoococoooocoooooooc TO TEE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS of the D UCKFA STL El G11 URBA N DISTRICT COUNCIL. ooooocoooooccoooooooooooooococooooooocoocccoocoo Gentlemen',— Population.—lu my house to liouse inspection of cottages in 1909 I found thei-8 was a slight decrease in the number of inmates—1235 against 1254 in 1908—but as I have no means of calculating the number in the rest of the houses I think the estimate of the entire population had better remain the same as last j'oar, 2450. Births.—The births have increased by only 1. There were 36, 12 boys and 24 girls (giving a rate of 14-69), against 35 in 1908, the lowest number I have yet recorded. The average for the ten j'oars, 1899 to 1908, was 50, a rate of 19 61 per 1,000. The births registered in England and Wales in 1908 were equal to a rate of 26-5 per 1,000.
