APPENDIX II.

Mortality in Different Occupations.*

Dr. Ogle gives, for each of about 400 occupations, the death-rate per 1,000 living at five-age periods; but of these the groups comprising the forty years between the 26th and 66th birthdays are the largest, and show the influence of occupation most markedly, and have been selected in the following table, compiled from Dr. Ogle's larger table.

Before 25 the influence of occupation has not had time fully to develop, and after 65 the influence of retirement comes into play. In the first and second columns are given, for the sake of comparison, the corresponding mean annual death-rates, calculated from the data in Dr. Farr's two preceding decennial reports. It will be noticed that the death-rate at ages 25-45 in nearly every case has declined in the latter period 1880-1-2. In 65 of the 73 industries, for which the death-rates of the two periods are comparable, there is a reduction in this age-period; in one it is stationary, and in only 7 has it risen. In the second age period (45-65) of the industries comparable, in only 35 has there been a fall, while in the remaining 38 the rate has risen. This is in strict accordance with the table on page 101,† which shows that, independently of occupation, there has been a fall in the death-rate of males in the earlier, and some degree of rise in the later age periods. The fifth column,
