Cancer and Malignant Diseases.
One hundred and twenty-one deaths from cancer and malignant
diseases were recorded during the year. They were equal to a death
rate of 11.1 per 10,000 of the population, which is 0.2 above the rate
recorded in the preceding year, while the actual number of deaths
was equal to that year's figure. When comparison is made with
the mean return for the preceding ten years it is found that they are
19 in excess.
