Biggs, state commissioner of health, made public the report of the Division of Vital Statistics, Dr. Otto R. Ejchel, director, on similar rates which have been compiled for all of the counties of New York state. The rates are based upon the births and deaths of the entire population of each county, exclusive of any incorporated cities. In other words, it is very large- | ly the rural area, which is represented by the data for each county. In the case of Westchester County the vil- lages of Ossining, Port Chester and Peekskill are not included because these villages are similar in character to the smaller cities in population and: environment. The average birth rate in 1922 for all of these counties, exclusive of the cities in them, was 19.7; the average general death rate was 14.6, a the average infant mortality rate was 73. | Nassau County's birth rate was 22.4; death rate, 11.9; infant mor- George J.
