Abstract

This paper presents estimates of emigration of foreign-born persons by age and sex for 1960 to 1970, based on 1960 and 1970 census counts of the foreign-born population, adjusted life table survival rates, and annual statistics on alien immigration published by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. The effects of nativity bias are discussed. It is estimated that approximately 1,140,000 foreign-born persons emigrated between 1960 and 1970, of which 663,000, or 58%, were women and 477,000 were men. Almost one-quarter of the foreign-born emigrants were women 25-44 years of age in 1970. About 175,000 foreign-born persons 65 years and over in 1970 emigrated during the decade. The most significant finding, that more than one million foreign-born persons left the United States between 1960 and 1970, has important implications for U.S. immigration policy and for net immigration data used to estimate the population of the United States.

13. TREATMENT OF TYPHOID FEVER.: WITH BACTERICIDAL IN CONNECTION WITH OTHER AGENTS, AND SOME CONSEQUENT DEDUCTIONS.

Author

PECK, J. M.

Abstract

It would be remarkable indeed for any physician, be he the most humble or the most distinguished—or his work restricted—if he is not called upon to cross swords with the disease designated as typhoid fever. The treatment of a typhoid fever patient, as we shall attempt to describe, is the outgrowth of our acceptance of the now old and universally admitted theory as enunciated by Eberth, and, except in rare instances, the primary and principal site of infection is in the intestinal tract, although there may be undoubted cases in which there is no perceptible inflammatory process in the alimentary canal.Taking the fact for granted, then, in the great majority of cases that entrance of the bacilli into the system is by means of the ingesta, we would naturally expect the first local manifestation to be somewhere in this tract. This we find to be the actual condition in

Abstract

In 1835 Peck and Messenger published their first map, a smaller map of "Illinois and part of the Wisconsin Territory." In 1836 they issued a much larger map, published by Colton, that is the ancestor of this 1852 map. Karrow shows issues of 1836, 1838, 1839, 1844, 1846, 1848, 1850, 1851, 1852, 1853, 1854, 1855, 1856, 1857, 1863, 1866, 1868, and 1869. The 1836 copyright was kept throughout, except for the 1853 issue, when the copyright was changed to 1853. In the unrecorded 1860 and 1867 issues (see our copies), the title adds Colton's name. It is odd that with so many issues of the map, it has become truly scarce. In its time, it was the best map of Illinois by far, and was probably the most popular. It is one of the only maps to show the vast extent of the prairies by graphic symbol. In addition to the two inset maps, there is an untitled profile of the Michigan Canal. There are columns of texts on the Public Lands, the Land Districts, Canals, and Population. In 1839 Peck issued with Colton the "Traveller's Directory For Illinois," with a slightly smaller map of the state (Karrow 4-1479). Peck was a Baptist Minister who traveled extensively in Illinois and adjoining states as a part of his work, and his keen sense of observation quickly made him an authority on the West. His Guide for Emigrants appeared in 1831, and his Gazetteer of Illinois in 1834. After his death in 1858, Colton continued to publish this map under Peck's name. Full color by county, folded into stamped black leather covers 15x9 with "Colton & Co.s. Map Of Illinois Exhibiting The Sections By Peck & Messinger" in gilt. Prime meridian: Washington., Karrow 4-1539; cf Buck 341; DAB.
