§ Mr. BURNSThe male and female adult populations (i.e., the numbers living over twenty-one years of age) of the several parts of the United Kingdom on 1st January, 1911, are estimated to be as follows:—
It must, however, be remembered that at a date so far removed from the last Census enumeration, all estimates of population, and more especially those relating to any particular section of it, are of very doubtful value, and may prove to be far from accurate when the result of the forthcoming Census becomes known
