Snow in The Northwest.

George M. Babcock, who has been operating a linotype in a job office in Fargo, No. Dak., for the past fpw weeks, wrote home Tuesday night that he would leave there the next morning 'for Seattle, Wash., to look about that city a bit. He said a snowstorm in progress at Fargo at the time he wrote, and dispatches from there in Thursday’s papers stated that the snow flattened uncut corn a,nd flax and that thousands of harvest and threshing hands have left the state, unwilling to believe the weather will improve. Snow fell Tuesday night and Wednesday in the Dakotas and in Minnesota.
