The greatest number OF deaths in
| Iowa occur during the months OF
March, September and October. This
| Is shown by the statistics being gath
cred by the fraternal insurance COM
panies of Iowa. During the, past
couple OF years, a number OF the lead
ing fraternal insurance organizations
have been securing data of the death
rate of persons of an age eligible 10
membership In Iowa, the causes and
| the seasons or months during which
the greatest number occur. While
they will not have the statistics com
pleted for some time, they show that
the death rate Is the largest during
the month OF March, but the forty
days succeeding September rs are a
close second. The parties who have
been gathering the statistics claim
that the cause Of the increased death
rate during these months In due to
the change OF the seasons. the win
ters cold gradually changing to the
summers warmth during the month
OF March, and Vice versa during the
latter part Of September and October.
