GENIAL JOHN
Said to Have Patriarchal Look, But
Is Not to Be Classed With
the GFaybeards
dayton Daily Newsl

John a. Studer operator Of the ell
evator at the Cappel's building on
Ludlow street, has long beard that
gives MIN patriarchal look, but he
is considerable of a boy in cOmpari-
son with the other graybeards. He
is only 62 years old, and he will not
acknowledge that he is a day older
sonage and his good nature and boy
ish spirit offse. the effect of maturity
that the beard produces.
Mr. Studer has been elevator man
at the Cappel building for six years
in fact, almost since the time that
he building was erected. His du-
ties have increased two-fold since the
city welfare department was located
in this building, and he has no time
to get into mischief He is both a
capable and obliging fellow. He may
be described as the right man in the
right place.
Mr.. St3der lived in Celina and in
other places in Mercer county most
of his life. He held various jobs, al
though he never learned trade. AL
most since the time of his removal to
Dayton he has been in charge of the
elevator of the Cappel building. He
is married and lives with his wife,
Katherine, at IA Lincoln street.
l feel sometimes that I'm growing
tired Of this job and that I'll get
something else to do. said Mr.. Still
der the other day. But that is when
everybody is grouchy or out of pa
tience or when they forget that 1
can't have the elevator on two floors
at one time. When everything goes
right and the people are good natur-
ed and patient, l think that I'll nev-
or get tired of the job. This is job |
that is just what the people make it
rather than what 1 make it,"

EARLY MATCHING FOR SIZE

Contrary to general belief and
practice, chicks do not grow or thrive
as well during the warm months or
hot sumer days as they do earlier in
the spring. Experienced poultrymen
realize this fact. The average farm
er, however, does not make an ef-
fort to hatch early so that the chicks
will have the advantage of longer
and more favorable growing season.
Early Matching not only insures more
rapid gains in the growth Of chicks
but has a favorable influence on the
size of the individuals of the flock
Late Matched chicks rarely, If ever,
attain the size of those Matched early.
Early Matching likewise influences
early maturity and consequently early
egg production.
Give the same food, care and atten-
tion, chicks Matched the first of Mar.
will weigh more when they are four
months old than those hatched a
month latery say the poultry special
lists of the U. S. Department of Agri-
culture. This likewise holds true
with chicks Matched the first of April
as compared with those hatched May
first. This is due to the fact that
the rate of growth of a chick is great
er during the first four weeks of its
life than at any other time. Conse-
quently, the early hatched chick,
having the advantage of a more fav-
orable growing season, makes great
er gains during the first four weeks
of its life than the late Matched
chick. During the early spring
months when the temperature Is not
so varied the growth of chicks is
more uniform and constant than it is
during the summer.
Millions Of chicks die every year
as result of being infested with lice
which, under average farm condi-
tions, are ofttimes difficult to control.
Hen-hatched chicks are not as SUBJ
ject to lice in the early spring as they
are during the warmer months when
lice are more prevalent. If for no
other reason chicks should be hatch
ed early so their growth will not be
interrupted by the presence of lice.
Many farmers realize considerable
money each spring from the sale of
broilers, the price of which is usually
governed by their size when sold and
the time marketed. Thus it would
seem that in order to increase the
amount of money from the sale of
broilers and fryers early Matching
would be employed so as to have a
marketable sized fowl early in the
pring when prices are highest.
