Excerpt from The Elements of Vital Statistics The issue of the selections from the writings of Dr. Farr (vital Statistics by the Sanitary Institute in 1885, which appeared after I had begun my task, did not prevent me continuing it. Every one interested in the progress of public health owes a debt of gratitude to the Sanitary Institute, and to Mr. N. A. Humphreys, the editor of the work, for thus giving in a readily accessible form these selections from Dr. Farr's writings; but the form in which the work is necessarily cast - consisting of extracts from various reports and articles, the subjects of which not infrequently overlap, -although very valu able for reference, does not meet the requirements of the ordinary student. It is evident that in such a subject the substantive facts must be derived chiefly from the registrar-general's Reports and, where it is not otherwise stated, the reader may assume that the facts adduced in the following pages are derived from this source. The value of the registrar-general's Reports 1s Increasing year by year; and there is no country in the world which possesses so rich a mine of information for all who know how to avail themselves of its treasures.
