Next it shows the ratio of each defect upon the number seen in each area. [See columns 8 to 12 on the left hand.) It shows also the ratio of each defect upon the cases of raal-development. (See columns 8 to 12 on the right hand. ) It must be observed : (1) That the data contained in the above table are necessarily limited. The children examined in the several areas were comparatively but a small proportion of the child-population of each district. (2) That in order to draw final conclusions as to the causation of defects and their distribution in various localties, a much larger number of children must be seen. Note.—The niunbcr of children seen in each district, A, H, (', clc, is given in the preceding Table VI.
