Washington dispatch: There has
been a persistent decline OF the birth
rate in the United States since 1860.
according TO a bulletin issued by the
census bureau. The bulletin was pre-
pared by Professor Walter +. Wilcox.
OF Cornell University.
The bulletin shows that az the begin
ming or the nineteenth century the
children under 10 years OF age con
stituted one.thlrd and at the end less
than one.fourth OF the total popula.
ton. The decrease In this proportion
began as early as the decade 1910 to
1920. and continued uninterruptedly,
though at varying rates. In each sue
ceeding decade.
Between 1850 and 1860 the proper
ton OF children TO women between is
and 40 years, the collaborating age,
increased. but since 1860 II has de-
creased constantly. In 1860 the num-
Der OF children under years OF age
TO 1000 women was 634; in 1900 1t
was only 474.

Decline In Sections.


Considered sectlonally II is found
that In the north and west there has
been a more or less regular decline,
while In the south the change has
been less regular and the decline less
marked. In 1890 the smallest proper
ton OF children was in the District
OF Columbia. The next smallest pro
portion was Massachusetts,. The
largest proportion was in North Da'
kota and Indian Territory.
In the general decrease between
1890 and 1900 not a single State OF
the north Atlantic division took part.
In seven other States. also. there was
no decrease In only six States-il-
linois. Maryland. Michigan. Ohio. Ken
