			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Whenever you select carpet, you have to consider many aesthetic as well as technical areas.  With well over<br />
a hundred thousands styles and colors being released  every year, selecting the right carpet to match your<br />
needs can be a very challenging task indeed.</p>
<p>Carpet is available in several different textures, constructions, colors, and designs &#8211; which will open<br />
the doors to virtually any interior design that you can imagine.  The combination of texture and color<br />
will complement the look of both formal and casual environments, while helping to bring continuity to<br />
the overall room designs.</p>
<p>The most important thing to consider when you shop for carpet is the amount of traffic that will be<br />
on the carpet that is going to be installed as well as the area you hope to use it in.  The construction<br />
and the texture are both key aspects when you  select a carpet for a specified area and use.</p>
<p>Nylon, polyester, and olefin are the mosty widely used fibers with carpet manufacturing, with each<br />
one displaying qualities that make themselves great with specific applications and uses. Even though<br />
nylon is the most expensive type of fiber, it is also the softest and most resilient, which makes<br />
it great for any room in your home, including those areas that have a high level of traffic.</p>
<p>Polyester fabric is less resilient than nylon, although it more cost efficient and offers a<br />
high level of resistance to stains, which makes it a great choice for areas such as bedrooms or dining<br />
rooms that are not subjet to a lot of traffic.</p>
<p>The fiber olefin is solution dyed, which results in a highly resistant stain carpet that can be<br />
cleaned easily using a water and beach solution &#8211; without any loss to the color.</p>
<p>Unlike the other types of fibers, olefin is fade, mildew, and mold resistant, which results in a<br />
carpet that performs well indoors and outdoors.<br />
Keep in mind however, that olefin isn&#8217;t very resilient and as a result, it should only be<br />
considered with berber construction.</p>
<p>You can get carpets in either plush or berber construction.  The berber type of carpets are well<br />
constructed with a continuous level loop, while plush carpets are constructed of loops that have<br />
been sheared, which results in the strands standing upright.</p>
<p>Berber construction carpets don&#8217;t crush or matt, due to their high level loops.  They are however<br />
harder underfoot, uncomfortable to sit on or lay down on, and they can easily become damaged by<br />
pets with long nails.  Berber carpets are well  suited for high traffic areas, which include walk<br />
ways, living rooms, and entrance areas.  They aren&#8217;t popular with bedrooms, as their hard texture makes<br />
them a less than attractive option.</p>
<p>The plush type carpets are much softer to walk or lay on and they offer better sound and thermal<br />
insulation.  They tend to crush and matt though when they are subjected to high levels of foot<br />
traffic.</p>
<p>The use of nylon fiber paired with a tight low pile construction will help to limit the amount of pile<br />
and matt crushing, due to the high resilient nature of the nylon fiber and the added support that is<br />
gained from tight construction.</p>
<p>The warranties for carpet ranges from 5 &#8211; 30 years, with the general rule being that you don&#8217;t cover<br />
the stairs.  Most carpet warranties will require the installation of new carpet padding as well at<br />
the time of installation in order for the warranty to become valid.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Soil primarily had its beginning from rock together with animal and vegetable decay, if you can imagine long stretches or periods of time when great rock masses were crumbling and breaking up. Heat, water action, and friction were largely responsible for this. By friction here is meant the rubbing and grinding of rock mass against rock mass. Think of the huge rocks, a perfect chaos of them, bumping, scraping, settling against one another. What would be the result? Well, I am sure you all could work that out. This is what happened: bits of rock were worn off, a great deal of heat was produced, pieces of rock were pressed together to form new rock masses, some portions becoming dissolved in water. Why, I myself, almost feel the stress and strain of it all. Can you?</p>
<p>Then, too, there were great changes in temperature. First everything was heated to a high temperature, then gradually became cool. Just think of the cracking, the crumbling, the upheavals, that such changes must have caused! You know some of the effects in winter of sudden freezes and thaws. But the little examples of bursting water pipes and broken pitchers are as nothing to what was happening in the world during those days. The water and the gases in the atmosphere helped along this crumbling work.</p>
<p>From all this action of rubbing, which action we call mechanical, it is easy enough to understand how sand was formed. This represents one of the great divisions of soil sandy soil. The sea shores are great masses of pure sand. If soil were nothing but broken rock masses then indeed it would be very poor and unproductive. But the early forms of animal and vegetable life decaying became a part of the rock mass and a better soil resulted. So the soils we speak of as sandy soils have mixed with the sand other matter, sometimes clay, sometimes vegetable matter or humus, and often animal waste.</p>
<p>Clay brings us right to another class of soils clayey soils. It happens that certain portions of rock masses became dissolved when water trickled over them and heat was plenty and abundant. This dissolution took place largely because there is in the air a certain gas called carbon dioxide or carbonic acid gas. This gas attacks and changes certain substances in rocks. Sometimes you see great rocks with portions sticking up looking as if they had been eaten away. Carbonic acid did this. It changed this eaten part into something else which we call clay. A change like this is not mechanical but chemical. The difference in the two kinds of change is just this: in the one case of sand, where a mechanical change went on, you still have just what you started with, save that the size of the mass is smaller. You started with a big rock, and ended with little particles of sand. But you had no different kind of rock in the end. Mechanical action might be illustrated with a piece of lump sugar. Let the sugar represent a big mass of rock. Break up the sugar, and even the smallest bit is sugar. It is just so with the rock mass; but in the case of a chemical change you start with one thing and end with another. You started with a big mass of rock which had in it a portion that became changed by the acid acting on it. It ended in being an entirely different thing which we call clay. So in the case of chemical change a certain something is started with and in the end we have an entirely different thing. The clay soils are often called mud soils because of the amount of water used in their formation.</p>
<p>The third sort of soil which we farm people have to deal with is lime soil. Remember we are thinking of soils from the farm point of view. This soil of course ordinarily was formed from limestone. Just as soon as one thing is mentioned about which we know nothing, another comes up of which we are just as ignorant. And so a whole chain of questions follows. Now you are probably saying within yourselves, how was limestone first formed?</p>
<p>At one time ages ago the lower animal and plant forms picked from the water particles of lime. With the lime they formed skeletons or houses about themselves as protection from larger animals. Coral is representative of this class of skeleton-forming animal.</p>
<p>As the animal died the skeleton remained. Great masses of this living matter pressed all together, after ages, formed limestone. Some limestones are still in such shape that the shelly formation is still visible. Marble, another limestone, is somewhat crystalline in character. Another well-known limestone is chalk. Perhaps you&#8217;d like to know a way of always being able to tell limestone. Drop a little of this acid on some lime. See how it bubbles and fizzles. Then drop some on this chalk and on the marble, too. The same bubbling takes place. So lime must be in these three structures. One does not have to buy a special acid for this work, for even the household acids like vinegar will cause the same result.</p>
<p>Then these are the three types of soil with which the farmer has to deal, and which we wish to understand. For one may learn to know his garden soil by studying it, just as one learns a lesson by study.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For many consumers, shopping for carpet is something that has never been an easy task.  To most people, it is more of a chore than fun.  For most people, shopping for carpet is a dreaded experience that should be avoided at all possible costs &#8211; although they aren&#8217;t in this alone. Understanding carpet purchase choices and carpet performance factors can help you make a wise carpet buying decision.</p>
<p>Knowing the popular types of carpet styles is very important for a stress-free trip to your local carpet manufacturer or retail store. The following are points that you&#8217;ll want to consider when you evaluate the durability of the carpet:</p>
<p>1.  75% twist</p>
<p>2.  15% fiber type</p>
<p>3.  10% density</p>
<p>These factors play a major role in its popularity and success in the carpet industry.</p>
<p>Knowing the importance of the three features in frieze carpet that sets it apart from the rest of the pack is very important when purchasing new carpet.</p>
<p>Twist</p>
<p>The twist type of carpet has a spiral shape.  It is used via heat method that twists the yarn into its permanent shape.  The fibers can have up to seven twists per yarn, as the more twists you have the better.  The result in the end is a rustic knotted look that is very appealing.</p>
<p>Fiber type</p>
<p>Frieze carpets are normally made with high quality nylon yarn.  Nylon is one of the most popular and most widely used fiber types for wall to wall carpets.</p>
<p>Density</p>
<p>It is very interesting that several people use the density of carpet as their primary factor in judging quality.</p>
<p>As you may know, carpet can be too dense.  The denser a carpet is, the harder it will feel, as the fibers are compacted.  The fibers were meant to wear on their sides rather than on the tops, as they need their room to move.</p>
<p>There are many major companies that deal with quality fabrics and fibers to help you purchase the exact one for which you are looking.</p>
<p>Gulistan</p>
<p>Gulistan was an early innovative company that created unique styles by using creative yet selective colors and that required easy care. Gulistan is actually one of the top manufacturing companies of frieze carpets.  Although it is a smaller company, it has proven over the years that it can compete successfully with the world’s largest carpet manufacturers. Its highly nylon frieze style is still very popular.</p>
<p>Laura Ashley</p>
<p>Laura Ashley is a company known for its elegant English country look that remains popular today.  The company brings a lot to the table, from impressive carpets to bed linens, paint, and upholstery fabrics.</p>
<p>Beaulieu Industries</p>
<p>Beaulieu industries is a company known for its cool frieze carpet, and it also licensed the Laura Ashley name and helped the company debut over two dozen products. These companies have maintained success in the carpet industry because they provide what is necessary to help every customer with a reliable and durable carpet.</p>
<p>The bottom line</p>
<p>Anytime you shop for carpet, no matter what the style may be, you should always know what you want and how it will fit in with your home.  Along with frieze carpet, there are many other types such as Berber, loops, high pile, and others that will add quite a bit to your home.  Your carpet is very important, and therefore you shouldn&#8217;t rush buying it.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, don&#8217;t hesitate to get assistance from a professional, friend, or a member of your family.  Those that have experience with carpet can be a great help when you purchase your own, especially if you don&#8217;t have a lot of experience.</p>
<p>Finding books or specialty magazines can help you discover more information about choosing the right carpet for your home.</p>
<p>There is no need to rush into purchasing your carpet. By getting help when you need it, researching, and just taking your time, you&#8217;ll have no problems at all shopping for a carpet and make the best decision possible. Carpets can make or break a home, which is why it is very important that you know what you are buying before you make that critical purchase.</p>
