Insures Delicious, ' Uniform Flavor Always ' When coffee ia rpasted in tho ordi nary way, which is in two or threo hundrod pound lots, it is a problem to get an even roast. Some of the berries may bo overdone, somo underdone. What ia more, ono batch may vary from another in color. All of these variations pro wont a uniform flavor. Hills Bros, overcame this problem by inventing and patenting a roast ing method that automatically reg ulates tho amount of coffee roasted and. the degree of heat. By a slow but continuous process, only a few pounds at a time pass through tho roasters. So oxact is tho control, that every berry is roasted evenly and gives a matchless, uniform flavor in every cup. No other coffee can taste like Hills Bros. Coffee becauso no other coffee is roasted the same way. Tho continuous process, Controlled Roasting, that means so much in flavor and strength is Hills Bros.' exclusively. When you buy Hills Bros. Coltco It is as fresh nnd rich in flavor and aroma as when it comes from tho roasters. Air, which destroys the flavor of colico, Is completely ex cluded from the vacuum cans in which Hills Bros. Coffno is packed. Coffee packed in ordinary air-tight cans does not stay fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by nnme and look for tho Arab the trnde-mark on the can. Sold everywhere. Hills Bros.
