VITAL STATISTICS.
Population.
The imminence of the 1931 Census has persuaded the RegistrarGeneral
to abstain from estimating the population at the middle
of 1930. The estimated population at the middle of 1929 is therefore
taken as that on which the rates for 1930 are calculated and
it is assumed that when the Registrar has the Census figures for
1931 available he will estimate the population for 1930, on which
basis the rates for 1930 will be re-calculated.
