It will be seen from the above that the number of successful primary oper-
ations increased generally up to the year 1883, since when the out-turn of
work has fluctuated but little.
In 22 years a little more than half the population has been successfully vac-
cinated, and in the last decade four-fifths of the birth-rate, estimated at 40 per
1,000 of the population, has been protected, so that primary vaccination must now
of necessity fluctuate with the number of infants in the community available for
operation, and these in turn will necessarily be influenced by a prosperous
season and the absence of epidemic disease, or the reverse.
Season's work of all establishments.
