Comparison With l1A. The birth rate for the entire birth-: registration area fell bflow thnl for 191ft by two-tenths of on per 1.000 population; but the death nte was lew by six-ten tha of one per 1.000 than In 1916. Thus the excesw of the birth rate over the death rate for 1917, which amounted to 10.5 per 1.000, wiut somewhat greater t hn n t he correa- imndlnf? excess for 1916, 10.1 per 1 000 ulthouph It fell slightly below that for 1915. 10. per 1.000. If the birth and death rates prevailing1 In any one of these three years were to remain un changed, and If no migration were to take, place to or from the area to which they relate, its population would Increase at the rate of slightly more than 1 per 'cent per annum, or a little more than 10 per cent In a de cade. This would be about half the rate 21 per cent by which the en tire population of the United States Increased between 1900 and 1910. While and Colored. Of the total number of births re ported, 1.280.288. or 24.5 per 1.000. were of; white Infants, and 73.504. or per 1000 were of colored Infants. The death rates for the two elements of the population were 13.7 and 22.6 per 1,000 respectively. Infant Mortality. The Infant mortality rate that is. the number of deaths of Infants under 1 year of age per 1.000 born alive throughout the birth-registration area aa a whole -was 93.8 in 1917, as against 101 In 1916 and 100 in 1915. This is equivalent to saying; that In 1915 and 1916, of every 10 infants born alive 1 died before reaching the age of 1 year. where as in 1917 the corresponding ratio was a trifle more than 1 in 11. Among the 20 states these rates rang ed from 67.4 for Minnesota to 119.9 for Maryland; and for the white popu lation separately the lowest and the highest rates were 66.6 for Washing ton and 109.5 for New Hampshire. The Infant mortality rates vary I greatly for the two sexes and for the variaious nationalities. The rate for male Infants in 1917. 103.7 per 1.000 living births, was nearly 25 per cent greater than that for female Infants, which was only 83.3. When the com parison Is made on the basis of race or nationality of mothers a minimum of 66.2 per 1.000 births is shown for In fants with others born In Denmark, Norway. Sweden and a minimum of 172.6 for infants with mothers born In Poland, while' for Negro children the rate was 148.6. Plural Birth. The reports from the registration area fchow the birth of 14.394 pairs of : twins and 155 sets of triplets In 1917 in all. 29.253 Infants, or a little more 'than 2 per cent 'of the total number , born. j Number of Clilldnm Mr I-amily. I The reports for 1.241,722 of the births occuring in 1917 contained hi forniHtinn as to number of child in or der of birth. Of these reports, 338, 04 2 were for the first child born to tho .mother, 264.044 for the second child. 191.52S for the third. 134.331 for the fourth, and 95,931 for the fifth. In the remaining 216,846 cases, or 17.5 ; per cent of the entire number for which Information upon this point wan 'obtained, the total number of children borne by the mother was 6 or more: In '37.914 canes it was 10 or more: in 1.- 600 cases. 15 or more: In 56 cases. 20 or more: and In one case, that of a colored woman, the birth of a twenty fifth child was reported.
