Birth, Death Rates
In Maryland Show
Increase in 1852

The general death rate in Mary
land rose from 9.6 per 1000 popu-
lation to SO in 1852 and this in
crease applied to considerable
majority of the causes of death
recorded, according to the Mary
land State Department of Health.
For the fourth year there were
no deaths from typhoid fever. On
ly 20 cases of this formerly dread
disease were reported in 1852.
There were no deaths from whoop-
ing cough and only two deaths
from diptheria as compared with
A the year before.
While there were 662 deaths
from tuberculosis, or PIT percent
per 1000 population, this repre-
sents a decline of "a percent since
1851 and PIT percent since 1850,
which indicates a drop of one-ffth
in TB cases in two years.
The increase in the general
death rate was influenced heavily
by the rise in diseases of maturity.
Diabetes rose 10.6 percent, cere-
bral hemmorrhage 6 percent and
heart disease by 4.3 percent more
than the previous three year av-
erage. The cancer rate increased
slightly.
These increases may be due in
part to better diagnosis and the
normal aging of the population,
the Health Department suggested.
The State suicide rate for 1852
was nearly fifth lower than for
the three year average, with the
decline in Baltimore City, the rate
