It has been cus tomary to take the record of 'the City Health 'physician's office i-without qualifications, but as a matter of fact, the records include all deaths occurring in the city, regardless of the fact that a large proportion of them were-from territory outside of Salem. Thus, there were thirty deaths recorded in June, .but only eleven of them are to be credited io Salem, while twenty-three of them were f rom , the eounty.L Fifteen of them were females, and eight males, The great majority of them were up wards of 50 . years of age. Pneu monia and tuberculosis were the' most frequent causes. Over against the death record there were but nine births, with females in the majority.
