Energy efficiency essential
for new appliance purchases
If you are remodeling your kit
chen, or just need to replace a kit
chen appliance, you may want to
consider choosing an energy effi
cient appliance.
Major kitchen appliances ac
count for roughly 15ft of your
home's total energy use.
Aa Energy Shopping Guide -
While energy-conserving features
on appliances may increase the in

make the extra investment worth

and will help you compare the effi
ciency of similarly sized models.
The following figures on energy
use and savings are averages; your
amounts may vary depending upon
use, upkeep, and local utility rates.
Refrigerator/Freezer - Match
the size of a new refrigerator or
freezer to your needs. Eight cubic
feet of refrigerator space is recom
mended for two people; add a
cubic foot for each additional
family member, and 2 extra cubic
feet if you entertain frequently.
Two cubic feet per person is the
suggested figure for a freezer com
partment, 6 cubic feet for a
separate freezer. To save up to
164% on refrigeration energy costs,
look for a power-saver or humid
dry switch that enables you to turn
off the anti-sweat heaters (used to

Gardening should be recorded
What varieties of pansies or
tomatoes did you plant last year?
When did your peonies start
blooming? How often did you
have to water your summer
vegetable garden? What fertilizer
did you use on your azaleas?
If you have trouble remember
ing the details of last year's garden
and your gardening activities, con
sider keeping a garden journal or
diary. It could help you become a
better gardener.
A garden journal can be a record
of what is happening in your
garden - what's blooming, onset
of insect attacks, what and when
you plant, crop failures and
outstanding successes.
In your journal you can record
the dates and first blossoms of a
plant in your garden opened and
the duration of the plant's bloom
ing period. This can help you plan
your garden for continuous
flowering.
Did frost nip your tomato
transplants? Maybe you will want
to record this so that you can
remember to set out next year's

plants later in the season and see if
you have better results.
A garden journal can be more
descriptive and detailed. In it you
can answer such questions as, does
the new corn variety taste as good
as the one you planted last year?
Are the petunia colors as vibrant as
the catalogue described? What
birds visit your garden? Which
flowers attract the most but
terflies?
Include the data you feel will be
useful later. Did that cantaloupe
really weigh 10 pounds or has it
grown in your mind over the
winter? Weighing garden prizes
and recording the results will keep
the facts straight.
Not all information has to be
useful. You may want to record
things you will find interesting
later, such as the name of the per
son who shared some iris rhizomes
with you, or your garden club's
reaction to your arrangement of
wildflowers at the club's monthly
meeting.
A picture is worth a thousand
words.
Photographs will help you
remember your garden as it actual
ly was.
Children will proudly pose with
a sample harvest from the
vegetable garden, or beside the zin
nia and marigold bed, especially if
they got to lend a hand in helping
plant, tend or water.
Photographs of trees and shrubs
around your home will be helpful
for insurance purposes if they are
damaged by lightning or some
other casualty.
Perhaps the most important
benefit derived from keeping a
garden journal is that keeping a
journal can make you a better
gardener as you become a keener
observer and more aware of what
is happening in your garden.
Super Rainbow?
puts sulfur back
in the picture.
The missing piece in your profit puzzle just may be sulfur.
It can leach out of sandy soils low in clay or organic
matter. So for more profit put sulfur back in the picture,
with Sul-Po-Ma^*(22% S) or with superphosphate (12% S)
in all Super Rainbow Fertilizers.
Stop in soon at your Rainbow Dealer and put sulfur?
and more profit? bade in the picture.

Hoke County has spaces for 60
campers. In order to reserve a spot

camp, please call Sandra Ross at

Low humidity can cause wooden
furniture to dry and crack. If you
do not have a humidifier, put a
saturated sponge in a bowl and
place them inside a cupboard of
check to protect it.
