SLIGHT INCREASE IN BIRTH-RATE IN THE YEAR 1908.
Two outstanding features of the annual re- port of the Registrar-General with regard to the population of England and Wales during the year 1908 are the very slightly increased birth rate and the rather alarming growth of "cancer in this country.
The births registered in the year under no- tica were 940,383. In proportion to the total population there were 'equal to a rate of 16,5 per 1,000 living, this being 0.2 above the rate' sacorded in 1907; but is was, at iba simo time,

each quarter, when compared with these for the corresponding quarters of the previous
year; while the heavy fall in the marriage tale which took place in 1908. will probably tend to depress the birth-rate further in the years immediately following..
THE INCREASE, OF CANCER: The report contains somewhat alarmlog 6gures with regard to the death rats from cancer to England and Wales as compared with other European countries: From 0.55 per 1,000 in the quisqueoniel period, 1881-j the death rate from this discesa has steadily increated. For the quinquennial period 1991-5 the rate was 0.86, and last year it reached 9.97) which is the highest rats ever recorded.
The Registrar General says: This conuiry occupies an unenviable position with, respect to mortality from cancer, the rate in England
