RECIPE GIVES COFFEE ROASTER IDEA FOR Applies Rule for Iklixing Muf fin Ingredients to Patented Roasting Process Success in muffin making depends to n great extent on tho care with which the batter is made. That is why most ' recipes state that tho milk should bo poured into tho flour a, little nt a time rather than all at once. Such caro prevents lumps from forming. ' This rule, "a littlo at n time," is tho basis of Controlled Roasting a nroccss natcnted nnd used only by Hills Bros, in roasting their coffee. By automatic control, coffee passes continuously through tho roasters, a few nounds at a time. Accurately controlled heat is ap plied with tho result that every berry is roasted evenly to the de gree tnat insures a ricn, unnurm, full-bodied flavor. The ' common method of roastinir coffee is in bulk just tho opposite of Hills Bros.1 process. Hills Bros. Coffee is always fresh because it is Ducked in vacuum. By this process air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken out of the can and kept out. Ordinary cans, even if air-tight, do not keep coffeo fresh. Grocers everywhere sell Hills Bros. Coffee. Ask for it by name and look for tho Arab the trade-mark on the can. Hills Bros. Coffee, Inc., Portland, Oregon. "irai Hurricane-Like Wind Hits Big I Timber Acreage . TACOMA, Wash..
