抄録

As one of the earliest public health practices in Japan, Rural Health Survey had been carried out in 143 villages from 1918 through 1927 (from Taisho 7 to Showa 2). The authors obtained the Reports of the Survey and have made a follow-up study on the subject of physiques of children among those investigated in the Survey. In this study, mean deviations of heights and weights of six to eleven year-old children in 19 villages from the national mean height and weight were calculated and compared with each other and also with some environmental indices. At the same time, the mean deviations of the heights and weights were compared with those of six primary schools placed in the districts selected from the said 19 villages in 1971, in order to examine the change of the status of the children's physiques. The results are as follows:1) there were significant differences in physiques of children among the rural villages;2) the mean deviations of the physiques of boys in a village from the national mean was fairly close to that of girls in the same village in the Taisho Era except for a few villages, whereas those of boys and girls in 1971 were far less close with each other;3) there was a positive correlation between heights of children and average amounts of money used for purchase of animal foods in a village in the Taisho Era and4) there was a negative correlation between heights of children and infant mortality in a village in the Taisho Era.
