This study was conducted to develope efficient vermicomposting using of different mixture ratios of cow manure and rice hull by feeding these to earthworm and then by studying the growth and reproductive efficiency of earthworm, and the chemical composition of worm cast and its production. The results are summarized as follows. C/N ratio of feed was $20.43{\sim}31.16$ and it increased according to the higher proportion of rice hull, and survival of earthworm was $97.6{\sim}98.4%$. Number of young worms were significantly higher in $10{\sim}40%$ addition of rice hull(number of $824{\sim}844$) than number of 769 of real cow manure treatment(P<0.05). Fresh weight of young worms was $8.00{\sim}11.8g$ and it was significantly higher in 40% addition of rice hull than for other treatments(P<0.05). The cast production of earthworm was significantly lower in the 40% addition of rice hull than for other treatments(P<0.05). But digested matters were showed in the tendency of becoming higher in the 40% addition of rice hull than in $10{\sim}30%$ addition of that. C/N ratio of worm cast was significantly higher in 40% addition of rice hull than for other treatments(P<0.05). Heavy metal concentrations of worm cast were showed in the tendency of becoming lower in the 40% addition of rice hull than in addition of that.

Information about processing method of Kwahaju can get from the 41 kinds classical literature traditional yakju. The contents of those classical literature consist of sixty items about Kwahaju, number of art-less-brewed alcoholics and compounded alcoholics. Interpreted content was classified and analyzed. Selected 40 items, about Kwahaju among previous 60 items, compounded brewages, were distributed into two groups of alcoholics ; Seoul Kwahaju and Kimchun Kwahaju. Both group of alcoholics, grunded on the periodical conversion of processing method through four centuries were set one thing to another and analyzed. The materials used for Kwahaju, compounded alcoholics, were waxy rice mainley, regular rice, yeast(Nuruk), wheat, barley seedings and Soju, Kwahaju, usually, is brewed for worm or hot season and store up the alcoholics for summer. It should be reminded to be durable alcoholics, not soon pureficated out or needing repair.

Designers are implementing the trial for enhancing human happiness and quality of life. As the happiness factor experienced by each individual is diverse based on human economic growth, absolute design has reached the limitations. A tool to represent the speedy development of change in consumption and problem shooting methods is necessary. Currently, no tool exists that develops in response to changing conditions and subsequent changes. As the solution to this necessity, worm's metamorphosis would be meaningful in design whereby tools exist and necessity as well as solution methods are in advanced change. Rice continues growth following the season, and no single method exists to remove the germs and worms. This study clarified the problems to be resolved by staging the lifetime of rice in 5 stages in environmental changes and conditions. This worm in metamorphosis design is developing brilliantly in biotechnology. However, the environment and conditions that bring happiness to humans do evolve, and this study aims to be the academic research for the design which accordingly replaces the tools.

The fruiting body of Paecilomyces fumosoroseus was collected at Mt. Mani, Ganghwa Island, Korea in September, 2001. This study was carried out to obtain the basic informations for the mycelial growth and fruiting body production of P. fumosoroseus in artificial media. The optimal conditions for the mycelial growth were obtained at $25^{\circ}C$ and in the range of pH $6{\sim}9$, respectively. P. fumosoroseus showed the favorable growth on Hamada medium. The carbon and nitrogen source favorable for mycelial growth were dextrin and histidine, respectively. Optimum C/N ratio suitable for optimal growth of P. fumosoroseus was observed on the culture media adjusted to the ratio of 40:1. The mycelial growth of P. fumosoroseus was optimal on corn meal agar supplemented with 30% of silkworm pupae. The most favorable fruiting body formation of P. fumosoroseus was obtained in the medium containing unpolished rice supplemented with 20%(w/w) silk worm pupae at $25^{\circ}C$ under 100 lux.

The purpose of this study is to check the antimicrobial activity of terpene, a natural product-derived extract against bedding bacteria, and compare the number of bacteria detected. To this end, the number of mites and microbiological surveys were conducted on the pillows used at home to identify the presence of pathogenic strains that could cause the disease. Also, after two weeks test using pillow with terpene, a natural origin extract, the rate of reduction of fungi before and after the use of the substance and the effect of eradicating mites were evaluated. The antimicrobial activity of the terpene was observed by using the Pour plate method. The anti-mite effect was detected as weak positive (less than 100) in 2 of 4 pillows in the first test without the use of terpene. In the second experiment using a terpene, all were confirmed to be reduced to negative less than 20. The best anti-mite efficacy of terpene was found to be 20%. The purpose of this study is to suggest the possibility of developing antibacterial and anti-mite spray products for bedding using terpene.

Since the outbreak of the brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens) in 1915 caused tremendous losses in rice production, one of the more effective method of prevention of such a disaster could be the establishment of longterm forecasting system, In 1916 the author indicated there was a correlation between sunspot activities and brown planthopper and the white back planthopper outbreaks. However, the examples seem to be too small size to state a definite correlation. The purpose of the present study IS to revi~w the history of the brown planthopper outbreaks, and to establish a more effective forcasting system. The present forcasting methods are based on light trap catches of adults which already migrate into this country from mainland China. The regular cycle of 11.2 years of sunspot activity began in 1710, and was continued to present. To gather more records of brown planthopper, the author checked 'Joseon Wangjo Silrok' and analized the so-called 'Hwang' 'Hwang-chung' and 'Chung' which have multiple meanings, together with 'Samguk Sagi' 'Goryo Sa' and 'Munheon Bigo.' The results obtained by the about from review of these old literature citations revealed that ten species of insect and unknown species were involved: i. e., pine moth (Dendrolimus spectabilis), army worm (Mythimna separata), brown planthopper (Nilarvata lugens), white-back planthopper (Sogatella furcifera), migratory locust (Locutsa migratoria), rice stem borer (Chilo suppressalis,), mole cricket (Gryllotalpa africana), rice-plant weevil (Echinocnemus squameus), cut worm (Euxoa segetum), and mulberry pyralid Margaronia pyloalis) The suspected incidence of planthopper in old records expressed by 'Hwang' or 'Chung' revealed a total or 25 out of 37 in 'Samguk sagi,' 21 out of 49 in 'Goryo sa,' 9 of 73 in 'Wanjo-silrog,' and none of 8 in 'Munheon bigo' were planthoppers. Therefore, a total of 36 out of 167 records of insect incidence in the old literature can be possibly attributed to planthoppers. The brown planthopper and white-back planthopper migrate together to Korea every year from mainland China, However, the number of each species are differ by year. In 1975 outbreak the brown planthopper was dominant; and the white-back planthopper prevailed in 1946 and 1977 outbreaks, During the course of this study, the author was able to add a new record of outbreak of planthop per. In 1916 the white-back planthopper outbreak caused serious losses in Chungcheong-namdo and Jeonla-namdo, with losses estimated as high as 160 and 190 thousand seok (23.2 and 27.5 thousand M/T), in Naju and Secheon county, respectively. Since 1912, major outbreaks of brown planthopper or white-back planthopper have been recored 5 times. These occurrences coincide and well matched the period of minimum number of sunspots, With these authenticated records of planthoppers, the author believes there is a close correlation between brown planthopper and white-back planthopper outbreaks in Korea and sunspot activities. Therefore, in years of low number of sunspots, we should watch for and expect outbreaks of these. insects. At this time, it will be necessary to provide all possible prevention measures.
