The present Statistical Annual of the city of Buenos Aires for the year
1913, is the XXIII, which, owing to its scientific, administrative, and infor-
mative nature, enlightens us upon the municipal distribution, instituted for
that purpose.
The most important which naturally attracts the reader's attention, is
fact
an increase,
that relative to the increase of the population of this municipality
which we have already demonstrated, as being one of the highest recorded
among our contemporary cities.
In the year under our observation, the population which, on December 31
1912, was composed of 1 428 042 inhabitants, reached, upon the same date in
1913, the number of 1484 010, which proves a nett increase of 55968 souls,
or in other words, a percentage of 3.9 per annum.
This percentage of increase is somewhat lower to what the population of
Buenos Aires has recorded during various periods, especially that which was
recorded the previous year, viz, 4.9 /o. But this fact, without any doubt is of
purely a transitive character, whose economic conditions are swayed by the
egress of a numerous foreign population. Putting aside this fact, the law of
increase has to follow on imperatively as in the best periods, since, as one can
prove, the vegetative growth on its side, does not disminish.
The demographic movement of the city of Buenos Aires during the last two
decades, is represented by the following figures

These figures seem to prove, the tendency which one observes in all con^
temporaneous cities, of a progressive disminutive birthrate; due to various
reasons, more attributable to that of a social economical character, than to a
physiological one. Eminent demographers like Levasseur and others who have
studied this phenomenon in France and in other nations, have come to the
conclusion that the continual decadence of the birthrate is brought about more
by psychological than physical reasons, or in other words, that the will of the
inhabitants is the principal factor. In Buenos Aires one observes a decrease of
5.58 per 1 000 inhabitants in the mediate of the birthrate recorded during the last
two decades. But before coming to a definite conclusion, it would be advisable
to increase the list of our records extended over a greater number of years.
We will content ourselves for the present with pointing out this fact for futuro
demographical studies.
We state, in the meant'me, that during the year 1913, the livebirths reached
the figure of 50 foo, which among a population of 1 4S4 010 inhabitants, gives
us a birthrate of 34.16 per 1 000.
Allowing that this birthrate is low, comparing it with what the same city
of Buenos Aires recorded in other times, it is nevertheless a high one, taking into
account the figures published by many important
cities during 1913; that is to
say, as far as we are able to judge by glancing through the following comparative
table.

health, the road they ought to follow in order to obtain this beneficial result.
Happily, in Buenos Aires, the demography proves a continuos and
statistical
healthy diminution of mortality, if ones compares, not with what this city pre-
sented thirty or forty years ago, before it had experienced the beneficial in-
fluence of the great sanitary works recently constructed, but that which is
manifested in the last two decades.
Nevertheless if one observes which was the mediate of the mortality during

By this table, one sees, that the cypher of 15.5 per 1 000 inhabitants which
is the deathrate of Buenos Aires, is not the lowest, nor yet the highest ; but occu-
pies an intermediate position among the above contemporary cities.

Deaths from contagious diseases, show a most important decrease. This end
has been obtained in the first place, by the progressive sanitary works which
the authorities during the past twenty years have completed consisting prin- ;
cipally of a vast network of drains, and the ample supply of water; and in the
second place, by the progress made by private people in the construction of
their houses.
If, without unduly making too high a comparison, we take as our stanting
point the decade (18S4-1893), we for every 10 000 inhabitants that
find that
died were from contagious diseases whereas in the following decade
39.4 ;
(1 894- 1903 ) the number was 13.6; and in this last decade (1904-1913) only
8.0 figures which denote a marked improvement.
:
The following table points out this progress, starting from the year 1874.
'Among 10 000 inhabitants, how many victims did the following epidemic diseases claim
annually?" typhoid fever, smallpox, measles, scarlatina, whooping-cough, diptheria,

In order to appreciate the position which Buenos Aires occupies in the Inter-
national Statistics on account of its deaths from contagious diseases, we have
drawn up the following table which shows the average among 100 000 inhabitants
of a great number of cities.

Among the deaths which have been caused by contagious diseases, smallpox,
formerly was responsible for a great number.
Fortunately, during the past few years, deaths from this source have stea-
dily decreased ; being a result of the general sanitary progress, and the greater
spread of the vaccination theory.

the rapidity and intensity of its propagation in every clime, and the many cruel
ways in which it declares itself. Even up to the present moment, science which
is diligently endeavouring to discover the ethiology of the evil, has been unable
to exterminate or even diminish its ravages.
In Buenos Aires, the same as in all modern cities, the deaths caused by
cancer have multiplied in a most alarming manner.
In the decade (1884-1893), 74 out of 100 000 inhabitants died of cancer.
The following decade (1894-1903), 81. And in the last decade (1904-1913),
89 out of 100 000 died from the same cause.
The principal organisms attacked by cancer during the last decade, are repre-
sented by the following table.

After the data relative to the demographic or vital movement of the pop-
ulation, the next in importance is that which refers to the public alimentation.
Unfortunately, owing to the deficiences of the sources from which the
Statistical Officedraws its information, it is only possible to present a portion
of the products and articles which go to form the alimentation of the inhabitants.
;
The other portion, very important in itself, is barely taken into account by
the Statistical Office.
Limiting ourselves to that which shows a minute inventory, we are able to
state that in 1913,
237868 bullocks and oxen, 125 150 cows, 96975 calves,
523064 sheep, and 87931 pigs, were killed for the consumption of the pop-
ulation in the slaughter houses.
The freezing establishments, according to data submitted by the Adminis-
tration of the cattle yards, accounted for 204458 bovines and 2190 calves;
158809 sheep; and 2354580 kilos of pork flesh, hams, and pressed meats; as
well as 5 175 292 kilos of grease, etc.
Converting the meat consumed in 1913 into kilos, by which we calculate,
according to the general average adopted by the Municipal Statistical Office,
that the weight of the utilizable part of an ox or a cow is 240 kilos, that of a calf
90 kilos, a sheep or lamb 25 kilos, a pig 90 kilos ;we make a grand total of
174 438 556 kilos.
Dividing these figures by the total number of the population, viz, 1 494010
inhabitants, we get a result of 117 kilos for each person, or in other words,
323 grammes per head per day.
This result is 21 kilogrammes per year, and 63 grammes per day lower than
the average taken the previous year of 1912.
With the object of verifying if this decrease in the consumption of meat
is a reality, or attributable to some error, we have approached the source from
which the Statistical Office derives its information, viz, the Administration of
Public Slaughter Houses, and we have found that the industrious chief of
this division, in his memorandum which he presented to the head office of the
Municipality, shows during the past three years, a marked decrease in the
slaughter of animals for the consumption of the population.
This is at once apparent by glancing at the following figures.
Besides the products which are disposed of in the markets, there are others
which are obtainable by the poorer classes in the free fairs. These latter were
established by the Mayor of the Municipality and have proved a great success.
These fairs do not pay any rates or taxes, like the other markets and shops
of the city and the products which are placed within reach of all the inhabitants,

From these figures we gather that in 191 3, the daily supply of milk provided
was 634055 litres.

Besides this, the Rly. Companies carried daily, an average of 21 804 kilo;

we estimate it to be about 20 000 litres daily.
dairies,
Taking all this into account, we are able to state that the daily average
consumption of milk by the population of Buenos Aires in 1913, was 654055
litres.
Bread is another food, which conjointly meat and milk, is considered indis-
pensable for the inhabitants. In 1913, the consumption of bread was represented
by 138378 131 kilos of elaborated flour; but as we have said, the real consump-
tion is greater, since the Statistics of Paris calculate that 100 kilos of unelabo-
rated flour is equal to 128 kilos of bread.
But, confining ourselves alone to the figures indicated by the flour, we find
that in 1913, each inhabitant ofBuenos Aires consumed 93.25 kilos of bread.
Water is another alimentary and sanitary element of the first order.
In 1913, 70180340 kilolitres were consumed, which gives a daily average of
130 litres per inhabitant.
This average is almost the same as that taken in 1912, viz, 129 litres.
In the last five years the consumption of water is represented by these figures.

The transfers of properties also shared the same depression. They amounted
to in 1913, 271 millions of dollars, against 342 millions o fthe previous year a
decrease of 71 millions of dollars. In 1913, 15206 properties, covering a surface
of 5670325 sq. metres, were sold for the value of 271 millions of dollars.
The Clearing House, does not record a decrease in its total amount of business,
as one would imagine ; taking into account the general economic depression ; since
the compensations of 1913 totalled 17652 millions against 6889 millions of 1912.

In 1913, the railways which have their point of departure in the Municipality,
carried 34961268 passengers between the different stations; an increase of 4
millions over 191 2.
In 1913, the electric tramway companies, whose lines cover an extension of
722 kilometers, carried 412 millions passengers. This is an increase of 30 millions
over the previous year.
The carriages and automobiles were also most useful in conveying people
from one point to another in the urban radius.
On Dec. 31st 1913, 5957 carriages were in circulation, classified as follows:
1 652 private carriages; 1 120 from livery stables; and 3 185 cabs.
If one compares these figures with those which the Statistics show for 19 12,
we find a most important decrease of 8 562 carriages.

In Buenos Aires, 133 180 children were matriculated in 1913. The city of
Buenos Aires alone accounted for an increase of 30 000 children in the period
of five years (1909-1913) and this figure alone is eloquent enough to demons-

schools which are open, seven for girls, and one for men.
During the year 1913, 6044 students matriculated in these normal schools.
The education of women, is a subject to which the public, authorities give
special attention. They have a National Lyceum for girls, and a Commercial
School for women, with day and night classes. In the former, 281 were enrolled,
and in the latter 213.
The same public authorities have wished to endow the women, especially those
of limited means, with professional or special manual attainments in order ;
that they may be able to gain their livelihood in an independant and dignified
manner. With this practical end in view, the public authorities, to whom sufficient

they had not extended a protecting hand over a disinherited class, a class
weighed down by a cruel misfortune, and unable to enjoy the pleasures of

we refer to the blind and deaf and dumb.
In the city of Buenos Aires there is one national institution for the blind, and
two for the deaf and dumb.
To the pleasing side of this picture, we must unfortunately present the
corresponding black and melancholy one, upon which the impressions of the
lives of persons and societies, are imprinted with an astonishing rapidity.
The table of crime for 191 3, shows an increase of 1 582 transgressions against
persons and properties, over the year 1912. In five years, from 1909 to 1913,
murders and crimes increased from 9273 to 14894. An increase of 60 %.
Forming a contrast with these sinister statistics of crime and misdemeanors,
are those pleasing and agreeable statistics of sports and entertainments, which
are unfolded in the pages of this Annual.
The theatres and cinematographs of Buenos Aires gave in 1913, 54882 per-
formances, at which 16044090 persons were present, representing a sum of
14890237 paper dollars. Of all the various entertainments which are offered
for the public taste, the cinematograph is by far the most popular.
Cheapness of the seats, and the varied programmes of pictures exhibited, are
no doubt accountable for this fact. At the same time, the halls in which these
performances take place, are as a rule, very elegantly and comfortably furnished,
and provided with an excellent orchestra.
Over a total of
16 millions of spectators, the cinematographs accounted for
68 %. The operettas shared with the cinematographs, the public
11 millions, or a
favour, although in a far lesser degree; being patronised by
910434 spectators.
Spanish comedies and dramas occupy the third place, with 814 910.
The grand opera, with its distinguished artistical performances, only drew
511 220 spectators. Undoubtably, it is very expensive and is only intended for
a very limited number of societv.
The statitics of sports, show, that on the racecourse of the Capital during 191 3,
108 meetings took place, in which 87 races were rum, 1 052 horses taking part,
covering a distance of 1 592 600 metres. Upon these races 121 millions of dollars
