EUROPE'S BIRTH RATE,
Highest in Eastern and Southern Part
Of the Continent,

|
| Nearly every country in Europe
publishes summary OF the informa-
tfon obtained in the census of its
population. which is taken every five
or ten years. BY studying these con-
densed reports, says the New York
Sun, interesting comparisons as to the
growth of population may be obtain
| ed
For Instance, 1t is found that in
! proportion to population the birth
rate is larger in Eastern than in
Western Europe, and in the southern
than in the northern part OF the con.
tinent.
The birth rate is more than twice
as large in Russia as it is in France
In Normandy and the southwestern
part OF France where the birth rate
is lowest. the births at times fall rs
low As Is to the 1000 inhabitants In
a year. But in Russia there are many
districts, as in Orenburg, where the
births are as high as 60 a 1000 In a
year
Notwithstanding the enormous emil
grafton from Europe in the nineteenth
century its population now is nearly
double what it was at the beginning
of the century 1t is believed that at
the beginning of the Christian era
there WIRE only a few million people
in the whole Of Europe. It does not
seem likely that the present rate OF
increase can continue many centuries
to come.
That part Of Great Britain occupied
by England is now the most densely
peopled region in Europe. The crowd
Ing Of so many millions together. is
at last having the effect of diminish
ing the birth rate Statistics show
that it has declined one-fourth in the
last % years. If this goes on it will
not be a very long time before the
English birth rate is as small as that
OF France.
In some parts Of Germany, as In
Berlin, and the region around it. the
birth rate is declining. bur in most OF
the Empire it still appears to be hold
ing its own.
