the question:Do I own the mineral rights to whatever oil or gas may be found under my house?

the answer:Yes, mineral rights and other subsurface rights are included with the surface rights of your land, so long as any such rights were not previously reserved or conveyed in the chain of title (or history) of the property. Unmined minerals that remain “in-tact” or under the surface of the land are included as part of the real property. However, minerals and other mining rights can be severed from the surface of the land and reserved or conveyed by the owner as a separate estate (or form of ownership, right or possession).

The Goal Is To EliminateFinding a home is a process of elimination. Attending several open houses in an afternoon is a great tool for determining what’s available in a price range. Even if you visit and decide a specific property is not for you, that’s OK; the exercise helps you refine your criteria. Smart home buyers eliminate all houses which don’t meet at least 85% of their “must haves”. With a Short List, you’re able to critically evaluate each property and find “The One”.

(StatePoint) You may not think a lot about your home’s outdoor spaces during the off-season, but in warm weather, your porch, deck, yard and patio are extensions of your living space -- and it’s important to maintain these areas to be in tip-top shape.Here are some helpful tips to get these spaces summer-ready.

OrganizeSet yourself up for a season of better gardening, yardwork, tinkering and auto repair by organizing your shed or garage. You’ll be more inclined to do these necessary tasks when you know exactly where your tools are and you don’t have to search around in order to get started.

Do an inventory of your tools. Throw out rusty or broken items that are irrepara-ble. Perform rou-tine maintenance on equipment and tools. Then organize your equipment in a systematic way that makes the most sense for you, making use of vertical stor-age systems that take the best advantage of the space you have.Deep CleanIt’s a tough world out there. Things get dirty, messy and stained, and sometimes a garden hose, soap and elbow grease just aren’t enough -- especially after months of neglect. Enter the pressure washer, which can aggressive-ly blast things clean with water

jets pressurized up to75 times that of a garden hose; or gently spray with lower pressures for delicate cleaning.Step up your cleaning of patio fur-niture, sidewalks and fencing with a light-duty pressure washer. For decks, patios, garage floors, siding and drive-ways, a medium-duty pressure washer can help save you time and energy on clean-up jobs. Just be sure to wear googles and closed-toed shoes when using a pressure washer, and never operate the machine in an enclosed area.If you don’t already own a pressure washer and you’re looking to purchase one, be sure to get the right machine for your needs. Factors like how often you plan to use it and the type of projects you will use it for are key ele-ments in the decision making process. Briggs & Stratton, a pressure washer manufacturer known for machines that start easily, run quietly and offer fuel efficiency, makes the selection process easy with a buying guide selector tool available online at www.briggsandstrat-ton.com.Friendly SpacesReduce mosquitos by eliminating standing water from the yard. For more comfortable cookouts, you may also want to add plants to your yard that repel these pests, such as citronella and marigolds.Plant trees so you can look forward to shady spaces for future seasons. However, for the current season, use awnings or shade arbors to create a place where you can safely and happi-ly spend the sunniest portion of your afternoons.By performing a few key tasks, you can prime home’s outdoor spaces for a season of gardening, entertaining, relaxing and summer living.

Shop organic on a budget(StatePoint) How do you eat certified USDA organic foods without going broke?“Eating right is in easier reach of Americans than ever before,” says Kate Geagan, America`s Green Nutritionist and expert consultant for Earth’s Best, the first organic baby food brand, in business for nearly 30 years. “Organic options are becoming more affordable and accessible thanks to many big retailers.”Looking to go organic? Geagan offers sim-ple cost-cutting shopping strategies:• Prioritize where you’ll get the biggest bang for your buck. One of the most important places to start is with animal products, as certified organic meat, poultry and dairy products do not contain added synthetic growth hormones and antibiot-ics. An added benefit -- organic products prohibit the use of genetically modified organisms.The 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans includes 5 to 7-ounces of lean protein daily for adults and 2-ounces daily for chil-dren. Make purchases less wasteful and more cost effective by keeping these rec-

ommended portions in mind.• Avoid Environmental Working Groups’ “Dirty Dozen,” the 12 conventional fruits and vegetables that typically contain the highest levels of pesticide residues. Many of these foods, which include apples and potatoes, are family staples. So purchase these items organic if possible and thor-oughly wash produce and remove the peel to reduce pesticide residue.• The farmers market is one of the most affordable resources for in-season, local food.Also, purchase raw organic produce during its peak season, when supply is up and cost is down. Buy in bulk and freeze excess batches to extend shelf-life without signifi-cantly impacting nutritional value.• Follow your favorite organic brands on social media to maximize deals and scout for bargains. Many organic brands run promotions, coupons and special offers that can help you buy more and spend less. Depending on the item, you can stock up during a sale and freeze for later. • One area where the benefit of organic

is well proven is for infants and children: that’s because these are windows for rapid growth and development. Make smart purchases. A 4-ounce jar of organic baby food can often be cheaper than a 4-ounce pouch, and has a longer shelf life. For example, Earth’s Best offers organic jars for babies four to six months old, starting at $0.99. Once opened, keep baby food jars and pouches refrigerated. Jars should be used within three days, and pouches within 24 hours.• In the past few years, organics have truly moved mainstream: 80 percent of house-holds now purchase organic items at least some of the time, according to recent sur-veys from the Organic Trade Association. Many big box retailers, such as Walmart, Target and Kroger, now carry USDA organ-ic products at low prices for babies, tod-dlers and older children, including baby food jars, pouches and frozen products from brands like Earth’s Best. More nutri-tion tips and organic products can be found at EarthsBest.com.
