Soil Testing- The Garden By Erin Hyaes, Extension Adviser, \griculture, McHenry County Every garden is prey to the usual cycle of insect, disease, and .meteorological assaults. But if your garden is unproductive year after year, your soil fertility may be the problem. Autumn &-good time to analyze and improve your soil fer­ tility. - A soil test will indicate your soil's fertility and acidity or alkalinity. To prepare a sample, take several small samples from several locations in the garden. To avoid unusually high accumulations of leaves, clippings, and other organic matter, take the sample from a depth of four to six inches. Spread the sample , on newspaper and let dry. Place about two cups in a plastic bag and take it to an agency which runs soil tests. The Farm Bureau at Route 47 and McConnell road in Woodstock will send samples to a lab for a small fee. Your results will indicate how much phosphorus and potassium your soil needs. It also gives your soil pH, the measure of its acidity or alkalinity. M6St crops do best on a slightly acidic soil, with a pH of 6.3-6.9. McHenry County's soils tend to be alkaline, with a pH range of 7.3-8.0. ^pply fertilizer this fall according to'^pil test recommendations. Organic Harms Farm 4727 W.

BAG OF ACORN SQUASH With Purchase of M0 or More Real Estate Facts Excessive government regulation at all levels, accounts for up to 30 percent of the cost of a new home. Building codes and city planning account for much of the red tape. For example, higher density zoning saves land and cuts costs for streets, sew­ ers, and rights of way. A General Ac­ counting office study shows that standards for streets and related site improvements add more than $2,600 to the cost of a typical new home. When engineers, builders, government officials, and con­ struction trades put their heads together, a good, solid home can be built for much less than conventional homes. More realistic building codes can reduce remodeling costs of existing homes as well, particularly with regard to the use of new, more ef­ ficient methods and materials. Lumber costs can be cut by per­ mitting trusses, walls, and floor joists to be framed 24 inches on center in­ stead of 16 inches, which is common in older homes. Concrete slabs can be cut from 3Vfe inches to 2Vfc inches. Other cost-saving ideas for new homes include: -plywood box beams instead of solid wood or concrete door and window headers. -single top plates on walls, -under-the-floor open space for heating or cooling, which eliminates the need for ducts in attics. -modular room sizes for a minimum of wasted space. Another interesting idea is the use of polybutylene pipe instead of copper pipe, which results in an average savings of 44 percent on plumbing costs. Polybutylene pipe is flexible, can accommodate almost any turn, and requires fewer connections. While required changes are slow in coming, reasonable building codes and city planning requirements are needed to lower the cost of home remodeling as well as new con­ struction.
