CLASSIFICATION OF THE POPULATION 57

CLASSIFICATION OF THE POPULATION DY AGE-PERIODS.
The second volume of the 6th Census of Canada classifies the popu-
lation according ta age. It is impossible to make any assertion as ta
the accuracy of the age of individuals as enumerators admit that a
great number of persans do not know their exact age, others, deliberately,
will not decJareit, while, in many cases, the information is given by third
parties only approximatively.

TOTAL PO(l'UL.ATLO.~.
The foJlowing tables show that the popuLation of the Eastern part
of the Country is somewhat younger than that of the ·Western part.
Thus out of 1,000 persans, 483 are included in the group of 0-19 years
in this Province and 460 belong ta the saille category in Kew Brunswick,
whereas the proportion of persons under 20 years of age is weil under
400 in the Prairies and British Columbia. In opposition, the group of
20-44 years includes more individuals in the West than in the Eastern
part of the Dominion.
