The HERBI produces op- timum, uniform droplets of residual or hormone-type herbicides. It gives drift-free and effective spraying for continuous or spot treatment. A 20% additive of light, low-viscosity oil, gives the best results in most HERBI applications. CDA techniques using HERBI's 250 micron-sized droplets have been used in recent years in Europe, Africa and Southeast Asia, resulting in increases in cotton, forestry and food crop yields.

Major savings have also been rea- lized by farmers, foresters, grass- land managers and city authorities concerned with weed control.

Work Force Growing The nation's work force has been growing faster than the pop- ulation as a whole, reports the American Council of Life In- surance. Since 1947, the population has increased percent, while the number of employed people in the country has risen percent. The 1975 civilian labor force participation rate was percent. Prior to 1970 it was slightly below 60 per- cent. Federal Minimum Wage Explained The Federal minimum wage, now $ for nonfarm workers and $ for farm workers, will increase in four steps as follows: Jan. 1, 1978-$; Jan. 1, 1979-$; Jan. 1, 1980-$; and Jan. 1, 1981-$ As was already provided in the law, there will be no difference between the non-farm and the farm worker minimum wage beginning on Jan. 1, 1978. There is no change in the agricultural exemption in the Act, with the exception of some changes in the sugar beet and sugar cane processing industries. The present overtime exemption for workers in shade-grown tobacco was elimin- ated. The general agricultural ex- emption from the overtime provisions was not changed. The small farm exemption for those who do not employ more
