John Patterson notes evergreen browning from winter drying, with dry soils last fall boosting cases. Affected spruce and pine may recover if buds stay alive. prune dead branches, delay pruning after transplanting, and water through dry spells. Also describes flame chlorosis in barley from a soil fungus virus, with yellow flame-like leaf streaks and potential yield losses, urging field checks and caution in planting barley. Weather history records a 24.2 F temperature at Portage la Prairie on April 24, 1989.
