TOOTING.
The estimated population for the year 1894 is 5,676
and upon this are based the various rates of mortality,
&c.
Births and Birth
Rate.
During the year, 149 births were registered,
of which 81 were males and 68 females. The birth-rate
is equal to 26.2 per 1,000, of the population, and is the
lowest recorded since 1890.
Deaths, Death Rate
and Rate of Natural
Increase.
204 deaths were registered during the year
as occurring within the district, giving a
death-rate of 35.9 per 1,000. The death-rate would,
however, be unduly augmented were not an allowance
made for the deaths of 117 non-parishioners, which
occurred within the district, and will not be included in
the calculations, those of parishioners dying outside the
district being included, producing a corrected total of
103, or a rate of 18.1 per 1,000 of the population.
The large number of deaths of non-parishioners within
the parish is due to the recent opening of the Fountain
Hospital, which receives patients suffering from infectious
diseases from all parts of the Metropolis.
The following Table compares the births, birth-rates,
deaths, death-rates and rates of natural increase during
the past six years:—
