SEEDING To-
Be RESUMED
Many of the Farmers Near Here
Will Begin Work in Fields
Again Tomorrow.

Farmers in the vicinity of East
Grand Forks and on Minnesota Point
will be in the fields seeding wheat
tomorrow again, after being delayed
for several days by wet weather. ac-
cording to farmers in the city today.
Rains Arc Helpful.
The rains. which 1t was thought
would seriously retard the seeding in
this section of the valley, will only
aid in the growth of the wheat al
ready in. With dry, warm weather
for the past wv days, the fields have
been drying fast.
The acreage of wheat sown this
year will be one-fourth greater than
former years, according to realty men
this morning. Corn. potatoes. clover
and alfalfa will also be seeded in
larger quantity this year than last.

war.
Brazil has drawn one step nearer to
war with Germany and today Is one Of
three countries hoverin9<on the brink
OF the maelstrom. Norway and China
are the two other countries which
may shortly be added t o the list of
Germany's foes.
Brazil Rushing Into War.
Two events have happened in Brazil
which may easily form the impetus to
the last remaining step on the road
to q DR.. Lauro Muller, Brazilian
foreign minister. has rendered his
resignation on h eve of the day set
for the Brazilian congress to decide
whether the republic shall draw its
sword. DR.. Muller has been persistent
ly reported as. II not actually pro-
German, at least a firm opponent Of
hostilities. His resignation comedies
with an order by President Braz de-
tanning the dismissed German minis
tor. The order was issued on receipt
of news that the Brazilian minister
had been refused permission to leave
Germany.
Norway licensed.
h possibility Of Norway's entrance
into the ranks Of the allies is based
on the havoc wrought among the Nor
wegian mercantile marine by German
submarines. Norway, prior to the
war, fourth among the worlds sea-
faring nations. has suffered so heavily
from the ravages Of the U-boat that
her shipping lis actually threatened
with extinction. The bitterness among
the Norwegiahs over German war
methods is growing rapidly and many
voices are urging that she could not
be worse off as a belligerent and find
compensation If peace found her in
the lists with the entente.
War Advocates Lead in China.
All reports from China agree that
the advocates of war are in majority
is still reluctant to texe the fateful
step. 1t has been reported that ia
pan was unwilling that China should
enter the struggle, but the Japanese
foreign office has officially denied this.
CenSors Still Busy.
In the meantime, the situation in
Europe remains obscure through con-
ficting reports and the extraordinary
efforts OF the censors. especially in the
realms of the central lowers. The
only definite fact in regard to condi-
lions in Germany is that a political
crisis exists and hat the antagonism
between the parties has blazed out
