Fig. 27 shows the rate of increase of the same territory be-tween 1870 and 1900 to be at the average rate of per centper annum. The average rate of increase for this territory from1800 to 1900, or a period of 100 years, is per cent, but is notgraphically shown by a continuous curve, for by combining Fig-ures 2G and 27 the complete curve can be obtained. On Plate 12 is plotted a curve for each of the above hoidzontal distances represent population, each space rep-resenting 50,000 persons. The vertical distances represent percentage of increase fromone year to another. Each curve then represents the yearly rate of increase ofiiopulation for one of the above cities during a given period oflime, the full line curv
