Default How to change soil PH without creating deadly salts ?

Hello,

I have soil in my yard that is 8+ PH and
I want to lower that PH to about 7 without
generating salts that will damage the tree
I want to plant. The tree is a Bauhinia.
This soil is so alkali that if you pour
a little vinegar on it , it will bubble
like crazy. Can anyone tell me the best
way to acidify my soil to a neutral PH
close to 7 without generating salts
dangerous to plants ?

What I really need is to get input from
a soil scientist but there are no newsgroups
on my server catering to horticulture or
soil science.
