hinder, if not altogether to prevent,
their operations. The bottling ups OF
Port Arthur is without doubt the
most important and urgent step that
the Japanese can take. for it is alb
sOlutely necessary that Makaroff's
feet be captured or destroyed, or al
least rendered imperative. before the
arrival of the relieving force frcm
Europe.
The destruction or capture of this
fleet so long as it remains under the
guns of Port Arthur and behind pro
tect!ng mines, is out of the question,
but If the harbor entrance can be
sealed, and kept so, Admiral Togo
can await the approach of the Baltic
fleet with composure. We may look
for frequent reDetitions OF such dar-
ing attempts as were recently made te.
sink heavily-laden merchant steamers
across the narrow channel! Not mere
ly does the fate of the Japanese navy
ultimately depend upon this success
full bottling up, but also the fate OF
the army of invasion itself If, durinA
the coming summer, the Baltic and far,
eastern fleets should be able to unite;
and, unless the Russian officers and
seamca are altogether incapable,
Japan would have to face the lkelh
mood OF defeat by overwhelming num-
bers. With Russia in command of the,
seas, the Japanese army would be cuG
off from its base of supplies, and the
question of capitulat' to the adj
vancing and steadily growing army of
the car would ultimately have to be
faced Never was the advantage of
the command of the sea so strikinglS
! illustrated as here; and the struggle
of Japan to maintain her present ad-
vantage promises to form one of the
most fascinating chapters in the
history of naval warfare.

Climate of the Field of War.

Frank Waldo in Review of Reviews.
With the opening of the Russo
Japanese war. for the first time with.
in almost a century climatic con,
ditions have entered as an important
feature, perhaps a controlling factor,
among the elements to be considered
in the conduct of the war. Not since
Napoleon fatal campaign, and never
since the introduction of the railroad
and the modern army commissary and
arms, has large army had TO face
really serious climatic obstacles. Ii
so happens that the present war is
occurring in region of the most
marked contrasts, and when the
avenues of approach of the COM
batants to the actual battle ground are
considered we find condition OF
affairs climatic that could not be
duplicated in any other inhabited por
ton of the globe. 1t is of interest to
consider these conditions as they may
affect the movements of the com
batants.
The climate of the Whole region
affected by 10 war is largely con.
troled by the continental atmospheric
conditions in the interior of Siberia
and their resulting monsoon effects,
which extend to distance of thou
sands of miles from this center.
Throughout the whole of eastern
Asia, the rule is a summer rainy sea,
son and a relatively dry winter The
summers are in general warm, with
monsoon winds blowing from the
continent seaward, and thus carrying
the cold dry air of the interior to the
coast.
Thanks to the system of weather
observation in Japan, which owes it's
completeness to Prof Mendenhall. we
know the climate of Japan about as
well as we do that of New England
for the past rs years. Russia has car
ried on systematic meteorological OBJ
servations in Siberia for upward OF
half century. and has carefully pub
lished the results. For Manchuria
and Corea, however, we have com.
paratively few accurate meteorological
observations.

Strawberry Fads

There is nothing so delicious to the
palate or so luscious to the eye as the
great and ever red-tinted strawberry.
There is something about the frul,
that softly lulls mans senses to
rest, and nothing sounds quite so ap
petizing as an order of One short
cake; whipped cream, please"
However, there are other ways OF
preparing the strawberry for the
dainty dessert which are Just as
satisfactory and just as pleasing to
the eye. For instance, take the straw
berry croquettes; it will not hurt TO
try them, and the good housewife LAY
find something new to tempt the man
who pays for the berries.
Cook one cupful farina in three cup
tuls milk until soft. Then aid hall
cupful of sugar, pinch OF salt and
flavoring to taste. Stir in two we'll
beaten eggs, and cook over the fire a
minute or two longer. Turn out to
cool and form into croquettes, placing
two or three fine strawberries in the
center of each. Dip in beaten egg ana
dry bread crumbs, and fry in deep,
hot fat to a golden brown. Serve hot
with strawberry butter.
Strawberry Butter Receipt.
To make strawberry butter beat hall
a cupful of butter to a cream, then
beat in gradually one cupful and a halt
OF powdered sugar. Add a little lemon
juice, then one at time, beating each
in thoroughly, six fine, large, ripe
strawberries. Stand on ice to harden
before serving.
Strawberry puffs are dainty anC

eighth teaspoonful salt and a level
tablespoonful baking powder. Bea,

buttered cups in a steamer, put in

cover with another spoonful of the
batter. Stream about half an hour,
and serve with strawberry sauce
To make strawberry sauce cream to,

cupful powdered sugar. Flavor with
vanilla Just before serving add the
stifi1y whipped whites of two eggs. a

Dreamed strawberries have thrust
themselves into publicity and taste as
good as they sound. Dissolve half a

cold water Add three cupfuls OF
boiling water, one cupful of sugar and
the juice of two lemons Stir
