ONLY ONE COFFEE IS ROASTED UNDER SCIENTIFIC CONTROL Hills Bros. Use Radically Dif t ferent, Patented Process to Develop Finer Flavor The housewife who cooks food in small quantities to insure perfect results will instantly recognize the ( value of Hills Bros patented, con- i tinuous process Controlled Roast ing as a means to develop tho utmost flavor in coffee. I Instead of the rare blend of line coffees being roasted in bulk, which is the ordinary method, only a few pounds at a time are roasted. These Bmall quantities pass con tinuously through the "Controlled Roasters" in which heat and speed of operation are automatically j controlled. Because of this accurate control 1 of the flow of coffee and the heat, I every berry of the blend is roasted evenly. None are overdone none i tire under-roasted. This uniformity is demonstrated in the cup of coffee eventually made. It has a flavor other coffees cannot equal because they are not roasted the same way. Hills Bros. Coffee is sold every where by grocers. It comes to you perfectly fresh because it iii packed in vacuum. This process extracts 'Airs' which--destroys the flavor of coffee, from the can and keeps it out. Ordinary cans, even if air tight, do not keep coffee fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look for the Arab the trade-mark on the can. Hills Bros. Coffee, Inc., San .Francisco, California.
