Description:Excerpt from An Investigation Into the Mortality Rates of the City of New York Each decennial census of Great Britain, from that of 1841 to that of 1891, has, with few exceptions, been followed by a thorough investigation into the mortality rates of the people at the time of the enumeration. Dr. Farr made the first three of these investigations, which are summed up in what are known to us as Farr's English Tables Nos. I, 2, and 3, and which set forth the mortality rates of the English people for the years 1841-1851. The English Table No. 4 was the result of the labors of Dr. Ogle, Farr's successor, and was based upon the census returns of 1871 and 1881, and the deaths for the ten years, 1871-1880. Dr. Tatham constructed the English Table No. 5 from the enumera tions of 1881 and 1891, and the deaths for the years 1881-1890. These tables show a constant decrease in the death rates and a corresponding increase in the Expectation of Life at birth, which rises from years and years, males and females respectively, as given in Farr's Table No. 3, to years and respectively, as found by Dr. Tatham. This is a gain of 3% years for males and 573 years for females. The last English Table shows an improvement over its predecessors in the Expectation of Life at every age from birth to 26; but at the older ages it develops a decrease in the span of life, due, it seems to me, not to any deterioration of the people, but to the continual out ow of young, strong lives from the mother country to the various colonies and to the States. It is only by such studies as these that the Executives in charge of the health of a community are enabled to keep their fingers upon the public pulse, and note the effects of every advance in medicine and surgery, and the effects of every improvement in sanitation. Including that of 1900, there have been made twelve enumerations of the people of the United States. Much data and valuable information have been gathered regarding the population and deaths, but we have thus far contented ourselves with mere guesses as to the possible trend of the death rates.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
