 MORE THICK IN N. Y.

AVON, N Y., Feb. 21-When ePctel Finigan went out to do the chores one morning recently he was mystl fled by the sight of a large numb of huge snowballs scattered over his farm. On a twenty-acre field there were hundreds of them ranging in size from six to IS inches in di ameter Leading up to each snowbali was a strip Of bare ground showing the distance it had travelled in form ing.
 MT Finigan and ncighbors who gathered to study the odd spectacle decided that the wind which had blown a gale the night before haG whipped up particles of good pack. ing" snow and started them down the field, some of the particles gathering up additional snow until balls had been formed that were too heavy for the wind to move furthcr All the paths of the snowballs wee in the same general direction tha; the wind had been blowing.
 To record the unusual freak of wind and snow. MT Finiean sent for the spondent of a Buffalo news paper who counted more than 1,000 snow balls of more than 10 inches in diameter.
