The cases on which this paper is based are not large in number, which is almost inevitable in a series presented by a general practitioner, the very width of the field his work covers preventing a large number of cases in any one particular class.

There is no reason why a substantial proportion should ever need any investigation or advice that the family doctor is unable to give. Total 89 65 49 203 Dividing these into success and failure categories, we have: Conceived Failed Category (A) (B) (C) (A) (B) (C) 60 32 11 29 33 38 AUGUST
