It has also been necessary, in order to secure numbers of any size, to make no distinction of the number of years married, but to include women married from 1 to 10 years. TBIBE OB QBOUF.

These and other differences apparent on a study of the figures for individual tribes are in many ways suggestive both of economic and possible environmental influences or of actual differences between different stocks. It is, for example, possibly significant that the smallest average number of children borne and the largest proportion of sterility occur in the arid region of the southwest, whereas the largest number of children borne and smallest proportion of sterility are in the moist coastal regplon of western Washing- ton, the drier but not arid region of the plains (represented by the Sioux and Cherokees) falling between these two extremes. Somewhat similarly, the Southwest shows the largest proportion of children surviving, the region of western Washington the smallest, with the plains averaging somewhere in between. These statements are true only, of course, in a general way, but it is possible that a hot and arid region of rather deficient food supply, mainly of vegetable ori- gin, tends to reduce the number of children borne, although it is favorable to the survival of those children who are bom; whereas, an equable, moist area,' of abundant food supply (including much fish, together with game and vegetable products) may tend to a greater fertility on the part of the women, but be at the same time less favorable to the survival of the larger number of children borne. Economic factors are, however, of such weight that much more abundant materials would be needed before definite conclusions could be drawn.
The statistics here given have reference to the marital status of the Indian population at the time when the census was taken, so that a person, for instance, who had been widowed or divorced, but had been remarried, would be reported as married. AU ages.—Table 59 shows, for the United States and for Alaska, the marital condition of the Indian population, by sex, as reported at the census of 1910. Table 59 MARITAL CONDITION.
