In the Returns of the 

 Bombay Presidency, I 

 find that the Strength 

 on the last day of the 

 period is given, instead 

 of the average, which 

 would give erroneous 

 ratios. I have corrected 

 this, however, in the 

 present Table as far as 

 I could, by taking tiie 



General Quarterly Averages.
