there would be come this sep- tember an empty senior kinder garten classroom due to a lower number of enrollments than in the past few years i began contacting the york school board affiliates involved in the derisionmaking to find out if jk could be implemented this year and if not why the rea- j sons i have been given are 1 the late date in choosing a qualfiedteacherthefactisinyork j region there are between 700 to 800 teachers that have been chosen from about 7000 applicants- surely there must be one qualified for the job 2 at the time of planning for the 199596 budget in march the jk issue was not brought up by the community fact how many of us knew about the empty classroom which has since caused summtview i to let go of one of their kindergarten teachers who is ironically going to be teaching jk in another york region school 3 if jk was to start this septem- 1 i ber at surnmitview orchard park public school parents may com- plain fact orchard park does not have the space for jk their school is overcrowded as it is they dont want jk in the state their school is now here are a few more facts as we all know some of our daycares in town are overcrowded children are being turned away if our four-year- olds were in school our daycare may l not be in that situation york region school taxes are up by 19 per cent stouffville school taxes are up by j 28 per cent what are we getting for our money our tax dollars are going to pay for additions and reno- vations to schools in thornhill vaughan markham and newmar- i ket so that their children can go to i jk this september i have a hst of parents of over 30 children who say we want our chil- dren to start jk at summitview this september if you want the same i urge you to call your school trustee j harry bowes

soil bed area should begin when soil is neither too wet nor too dry work ing the soil under either condition can greatly damage its structure before preparing your planting bed pick up a clump of soil and roll it into a ball water the area evenly and wait a day or two if your garden area has never been worked before remove all sod and weeds either mechanically with a rototiller or tractor or by hand compost the removed weeds and sod enriching soil naturally for most flowers or vegetables it will be suf ficient to rum and work the soil to a depth of about 10 12 inches however the deeper the soil is worked the better especially for deeprooted crops before you turn over the soil spread a oneto fourinch layer of compost or other humus over the area this layer should be deeper if you are work ing with very poor soil the compost should consist of a decomposed mixture of raw organ ic materials like leaves grass clippings well- aged manures and kitchen wastes if you do not have your own compost pile you can usu ally collect leaf mold and grass clippings from the local public works department and manures from horse stables work the organic matter into the garden bed to a depth of at least four to six inches it is eas iest to work in the compost by working the soil in strips begin by digging a trench about one foot wide and shovel out the top 10 to 12 inch es of soil this soil can be set aside to fill in the final trench of the bed dig another trench alongside the first and put its 10 to 12 inches of soil into the first trench continue this pattern until the entire area has been worked after the entire bed is loosened turned and the compost fully integrated rake to smooth and level the soil surface finally lightly water the bed to settle it soilph most garden plants grow best with a soil ph between 62 and 68 which is slightly acidic the ph of a soil is important because essential plant nutrients become unavailable if the ph is q strdkc all you see and hear is water

6425555 either too high or too low a general rule of thumb is that areas that receive little rainfall with warm temperatures usually have alkaline soils or higher ph while areas that are tem perate with high rainfalls usually have acidic soils or lower ph to know for sure you should have your soil tested contact your local county service extension for information on where and how to test for ph or you can purchase a soil testing kit from most garden centres or mailorder garden sup ply catalogues if you are preparing a bed for plants that need acidic soils like azaleas camellias rhododendrons or dogwoods add equal parts of peat moss decomposed pine needles and compost to the root area where the plants will be planted to a depth of at least 18 inches or more if possible this mixture should be pre- moistened before being incorporated into the planting hole to lower the ph an addition of a sulphur or iron sulphate is worked into the soil follow the application guidelines on packages of these amendments to correct the ph level the ph can be raised by the addition of dolomitic limestone which also adds calcium and magnesium to the soil wood ashes will increase ph but it takes twice as much as the amount of limestone to achieve the same result however ashes also add potassium phosphate and boron to the soil soil tests and fertilizers soil tests can also determine the relative- nutrient levels in the soil so adjustments can be made to correct any nutrient deficiencies with regular additions of compost you should attain adequate fertility in the soil over time if soil fertility is poor you may need to add direct sources of nitrogen phosphorus and potassium these are the major nutrients essential for all plant growth they can be immediately increased with an application of chemical fer tilizer commercial fertilizers list the relative amounts of nitrogen phosphorus and potassi um as the npk ratio for example a bag of 1055 fertilizer has a higher nitrogen content than phosphorus or potassium nitrogen which promotes leaf development in plants can be increased organically by incorporating blood meal fish meal cottonseed meal or hoof and horn meal into the soil phosphorus promotes root development and cell division strong stems root growth and disease resis tance it can be added in the form of potash kelp meal greensand or crushed granite trace element such as boron zinc iron and magnesium are needed by plants in much- smaller amounts than nitrogen phosphorus and potassium nevertheless they are vital for healthy and vigorous plant growth and development if you are regularly adding compost and prac ticing good soil care you should have a good balance of available trace elements if your soil is very poor to start with an application of kelp or seaweed is an excellent source for sup plying trace elements
