Under the heading of "The Wastage
of Child Life" the Times publishes an
interesting account of an experiment
carried out in the Yorkshire industrial
village of Longwood, n of the wards
of the borough Of Huddersfield.
The village stands high and is free
from slums, but the great majority of
the inhabitants are factory workers,
and though the general death-rate has
been low for the last ten years the
average infant mortality up to the
period of the experiment was 122 per
thousand births.
The method of attempting to reduce
this wastage has been twofold; first,
the promise to pay fl for each baby
born in the district between November
9, 1904, and November 8, 1905, On its
attaining the age of twelve months;
and, second, the systematic distribu-
ton Of information as to the feeding,
nursing and tending of children, rein
forced by the domiciliary visits of a
small committee of ladies.
The result of the experiment has
been to reduce the infant mortality to
fifty-four per thousand births. or more
th u fifty per cent.-London Spectator.
