* X.B.—In this and previous Reports, the birth Rate is calculated upon the special Borough populations estimated respectively for that purpose
by the Registrar-General for the years 1916, 1917, 1918, 1919, 1920, viz., 308,702, 303,245, 293,869, 254,097, and 294,303. These
populations are the civil populations plus all non-civilians enlisted from Ihis country, whether serving at home or abroad, this non-civilian
element being distributed over all the districts in the coun'ry in proportion to their estimated civilian population.
