From all indications, this will go down in history as one of the most severe winters ever. Yet strangely enough, most of our plant material is perfectly equipped to stand this weather and may even be better off for it says George Young. McHenrv county Extension adviser Mild winters can be hard on plants for a number of reasons. Plants frozen in throughout the season stay fully dormant, whereas, fluctuating seasons - cold, mild, then cold again - can cause plants to break dor­ mancy and then be injured by the next severe cold spell. Insects stand a much better chance of surviving a mild winter and can be a real problem if populations start off at a high level in spring. The tremendous aphid problem last year could well have resulted from the exceptionally mild winter of '75-76. With winter half over, there are some things that should be done outdoors now, to make sure your plantings arrive in good shape next spring. Take a walk around your yard. Check the mulches over your perennials and strawberries. There has not been much snow cover up to now and mulches could have blown away. Replace them if needed. Small animals are finding food scarce now. Check your fruit trees for rabbit or mouse damage to the bark. Put plastic or wire guards around trunks if needed. Winter is a good time to prune fruit trees and small shrubs such as red or yellow twig dogwood. The job is much easier when you can see the Structure of the plant unhampered by foliage. Broken branches should be removed and the wounds painted. Note any extensive tree trimming that needs to be done, and call your arborist. They are not as busy now as in summer. Evergreens in exposed situations may suffer from sun and wind. These plants may benefit from a burlap screen on a wooden frame, protecting tbem on the south and west sides. Don't cover your evergreens with plastic bags. Temperatures in there on sunny days will start them growing, only to be killed when the sun goes down. Satisfied that your domain is in good order, you can spend the rest of winter, cozy next to the fire, happily examining the seed catalogues in anticipation of that first warm day in spring WHAT'S NEW ZLSCTJ&JtC PU9H-&U7TWJ &Y&7SM REPUCeS H/A7&Z, COfilZUMPVOri W£UM*i#TTH& PROLON&CP M/X/Mar t f r r MP COUP H/ATtfe.

MARGARET O'NEIL Clerk of the Court (Pub. Feb. 2,9,16,1977) no T STH£ Wfeather What happens when a cold front and a warm front meet head-on? What are the characteristics on the sta­ tionary front produced? A cold front, running into a warm front with about equal momentum, stagnates and marks time. The warm front also comes to a halt and the result, where the two air masses have met, is a stationary front. A stationary front almost;; always produces prolonged rain and cloud and erratic " wind currents. Sometimes the rain lasts for many days, until one of the sys­ tems breaks through the other or another strong front moves in. If you're planning to fly in private aircraft, the weather map symbol of a stationary front should be highly discouraging, for landing and navigating in such an area is hazardous and often dangerous. Stationary fronts occur during the change of sea­ sons. This spell of bad weather was called by old- timers the "turn of the sea­ sons." : CARY HARVARD WOODSTOCK McHENRY RTE 14 & 106 W. 220 N. 3750 W. SILVER LAKE RD. SUMNER JtTERSON ELM ST.
