Margaret,

I will add one more soil amendment practice here if I do not get laughed off 
the list.

I add rocks.  You see we have more rocks than soil, so, when digging the 
holes in new places some of the rocks are returned to the hole along with the 
compost, manure or what we are using.  What we use is what we have available 
but the rocks, all sizes, seem to help retain water.  Also there are fewer 
rocks to haul away.  In any case, Siberians planted with manure and rocks 
seem to do just fine.
