When deciduous trees, the ones that lose their leaves, ‘gre planted on the south, southeast or eouthwest sides of a house, their leaves can shade the surrounding land ‘and the house in summer. In winter, when they have ‘dropped their foliage, the low winter sun can shine through the branches into the house providing warmth. Coniferous trees, the evergreens, should be planted on the north side of a house to help block the winds _of fall, winter and spring. ‘Trees, shrubs, and ground - ~ gover, which includes grass 7 oe 5 and small plants, can lower summer — temperatures ‘because they release into the ‘air the’ moisture stored in “thelr “‘atrategically. locating such foliage. _By wish to create in ‘order concerning by any. GETTING THE MOST FROM YOUR KITCHEN: A kitche holds. Empty window space is transformed into a living center, easi| o>, foc vegetation around your house, you can create some cooling that reduces the need for ait conditioning. But a word of caution is in tree- planting. Certain fast- growing trees such as populars should be planted a © sufficient distance from the house and any adjacent structures so that their root systems do not interfere with building foundations, Most trees drink a tremendous amount of moisture from the soil, a particularly im- portant fact with certain types of clay. soil. The resulting dehydration of the can cause unwanted settling of below-ground construction. Vines growing on the walls of your house will help block solar heat in the summer, et are particularly ‘ef- fective on the west wall which is hit by direct sunlight during the hottest part’ of the summer day. Take care to plant only those varieties which will not damage the outside of your house. : é OCT 78 eS ee a ae OGRE GOOD LANDSCAPING HELPS CONSERVE ENERGY While planning your yard with energy conservation in mind, don’t forget that patios, walks, fences and other common structures have a part to play. Light-colored sidewalks and patios can actually boost your home's heat by reflecting sunlight and heat towards the house. Foun- dation shrub or flower beds will help cut thia reflective heat in the summer, Well-placed fences or sunscreens can also help cool your house in the summer. They should be light-colored to reflec! heat and louvered to permit breezes to pass through. The secret to using all these natural and man-made energy-saving landscape features is intelligent planning. Trees, shrubs, fences and screens all have to be positioned with care so you get the desired effects of blocking unwanted heat and winds while admitting welcome breezes and sunlight, 1 that’s more than a kitchen makes life easier for active hause- y. with a mult-fevel countar-top table, built onta the wall, Tuck-away folding stools, covered with a cushy Suede look-alike, are both practical ; lambrequin is easy-care “Ranchero” by Naugahyde.
