During the year the number of births corrected by inward and
outward transfers was 4,023, giving a corrected birth rate of 14.21
compared with 13.63 last year, an increase of 0.58 per one thousand
population.
The principal causes of death are again the same four, heart
disease which claimed 885 or 24.45 per cent. of the total, cancer
505 or 13.95 per cent., diseases of the lungs 446 or 12.32 per cent.,
and tuberculosis 267 or 7.37 per cent.
The deaths from tuberculosis are less by seven than they were
in 1933, but owing to the estimated population being 5,100 lower,
the death rate per one thousand population remains the same as
last year, viz., .94.
