To investigate the factors affecting the transportability of spray droplets, the maximum distance, the effective distance, the ratio of even distribution, and the diameters of particles were measured in accordance with the different pressure levels of power sprayer using 3 hole swath type nozzle, and the results are summerized as follows; 1. The distance of the most dense point from the nozzle was shortened by 0.5 meter with the 100-meter-long hose. The maximum reaching distances were reduced by 1.5 and 1.0 meters for the 13m/m and the 8.5 m/m hoses respectively, and the effective distance were reduced by 0.5 meter for both cases. 2. The effective distance can not be extended beyond 14 meters even if the length of hose is minimized at the rated pump pressure 28 kg/$cm^2$, it was 1 meter longer for 13m/m hose compared to the 8.5m/m one. 3. In case of 13m/m hose, the most dense point can be extended further by 0.5 meter increasing the pump pressure by 8 kg/$cm^2$, and the maximum distance and effective distance were increased by 2.0 and 0.5 meters respectively. There was no significant effect of pressure changes on the transportability in case of 8.5m/m hose. 4. Both the reduction of hose length and the increase of pump pressure influenced in large extent to the atomization effect of droplets. It was noticed that the diameter of droplet is related to the pump pressure and inside diameter of hose. 5. The pressure drop in 100-meter-long and l3m/m hose was 5~7kg/$cm^2$ at the pump pressure range of 25~33kg/$cm^2$, and it is an equivalent of 2% per 10 meter length of hose.

The purpose of the study was to ascertain the trends of future circumstances in primary education along with population change. These trends, which are subject to change in population and structure, have a great impact on the size and characteristics of primary school-aged children. Accordingly, it is imperative for the government to plan for future conditions involving primary education. The major findings of the study were as follows: 1. In the long-term primary school children aged 6-11, which accounted for 17.7% of the total population in 1970, will decline to 8.6% by the year 2000, 6.9% in 2020 and 6.4% in 2030. This drastic reduction in fertility rate is a direct result of pressure by the government to control population. 2. In 1996, the total number of classes in primary schools rose to 106,594. In the future, these numbers will actually decline. By 2003 the total number of classes will peak at 142,605, but until then drop off to 112,288 by 2030-a decrease of over 6,000. 3. The actual number of primary schools in 1997 totaled 5,721. This figure will reach its highest peak, 5,942, in 2003, but it is expected decrease later after declining by 1,263, it will bottom out at 4,679 in 2003. 4. The number of teachers at primary schools increased from 101,095 in 1970, 119, 064 in 1980, 136,800 in 1990 to 138,369 in 1995. Accordingly this means that the ratio of students to teaching staff changed for the better. By the year 2005, if teachers of specialty subjects (music, art, English, physical education) are assigned to every primary school with over 18 classrooms and the number of students per class is 30, it should improve educational surroundings. This is because it is expected that the population of primary school children will continue to grow until 2003 and then decrease. Thus, there is a need to maintain the number of primary school teachers between the years 2003 and 2030 so that the ratio of students to teachers will be reduced to 1/20.25. In considering factors related to migration which influence conditions of education, it is evident that changes have already begun. In the suburbs of Seoul, population shifts are causing overcrowding in classrooms. The government believes it would be inefficient to invest in education because fluctuating migration figures make it impossible. Accordingly, we have to be concerned about stabilizing the population throughout the entire country.
