type of treatment for sick family members; 7. Ecozone: highrand, midland, and lowland; 8. crop zone: food crops, cash crops, and food and cash crops;9. À9e and sex of children. Significant variables are presented in Tables 1'1 , 12, and 13. 31 4"2 pESCRrpTi0N 0F ANTHRoPoMETRIC AND ÀSSOCIÀTED VARIABLES The frequency distribution of agersex,socio-economicrand health variables are given in Tab1es 1 to 9. The number of children between the ages of 0-12 months was 1106 (39%) and that of children between the ages of 13-36 months was 1300 (45.9%) out of a toLal of 2833 children surveyed. Nutritional marasmus is commonly seen in the first'12 months of life and kwashiorkor occurs mainly in the age group of 12-36 months (Jetliffe, 1966). Thus, the proportion of children vulnerable to either nutritional maräsmus or kwashiorkor was high, g4.g% (table 1). The number of children who came from households having more than 3 children were 112 (4%), out of a lota1 of 283'1 and the mean household size was 5.6 (raute z). The weight-for-Height, Height-for-À9e and Þteight-for-Àge distribution of the children in rural Sidama Awraja is given in Tables 8' 9, and 10. Children were cfassified as miId, moderate and severe cases of malnutrition according to Waterlow's (1976) classification for wt/Ht and Ht/Àge and based on Jelliffe's ('1 965) classification for wt/Age. The wt/Ht, Ht/Age, and wt/Àge percentages of the standard were calculated for 2'833 children. The proporLion of children who were considered malnourished in the Î.tt/Àge parameter (75.8%) was greater than that indicated by either lrt/Hl or Ht/Age (40,5% and 63.8% respectively). The mean l.tt/Age' wt/Ht and Ht/Age percentages of children studied were 80.5t'14, 92.4!10 and 92,7!6, respectively.
