Politically it is smart. It means that Hoover can run again as a dry but with one band out to the moist brethren." Salt Ijifce Telegram "Prohibition enforcement Itself may be regarded as an utter failure, after 11 years of trial." .New York Time "The fact of outstanding interest In the eutire report is that six of the eleven commissioners are of one' mind as to the one form of modification that should be adopted, if any." sipokuno Spokesman Kevk'H "The big wet asso. iation against the prohibition amendment and its ally, the Modifi cation League.

SIC.! COOKING CROQUETTES AND ROASTING COFFEE HAVE MUCH IN COMMON Success Depends Upon the Rule A Little at a Time Cartful rooks do not crowd too many croquettes into the hot fat because they lower the tempera ture and then absorb grease. Cook ing" a lew at a time prevents this. In roasting; coffee there is simi lar difficulty when too much is roasted at once. It is impossible to control the heat and often, as a result, part of the hatch is over done and part underdone This causes variation in flavor. xims Bros., following the rule 1 the croquette recipe, roast only few pounds of coffee at a time by their patented, continuous proc ess Controlled Roasting. There is no variation in the roast be cause there is accurate control of the heat, also of the flow of coffee through the roasters. A rare, uni form flavor is developed such as no other coffee has. Grocers everywhere sell Mills Bros. Coffee in vacuum cans that keep it fresh. Air. which destroys the flavor of coffee, is removed from the cans when they are packed, and kept out. Ordinary cans, even if air-tipht, 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 J Francisco, California.
