MILLIONS ENJOY UNUSUAL THRILL IN RARE COFFEE Patented Roasting Process Gives Hills Bros. CofTee Distinctive Flavor By s radical! different proecss of flavor-control, Hills Bros, have Riven their rare blend of coffee a flavor such as no other coffee has. "A little at a time" is the basis of this patented process Con. trolled Roasting. A constant stream of green coffee is introduced into the roasters in automatically measured lots of about threo pounds, nnd passes through in a steady flow, roasting a little at a time. The heat in automatically controlled so any variation in the roast is absolutely prevented. Such uniformity of the roast is i not possible by bulk methods. In spite of watchful care some of the ! coffee is roasted too much some ! too little. Flavor variation is there fore inevitable. As fast as Kills Bros. Coffee is roasted, it is ground and packed in vacuum. Vy this process air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken from the can. and kent out. Ordinary cans, even if air-tight, ! will not keep coffee fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look ' for the Arab the trade-mark on the can. Sold everywhere by grocers. Hills Bros.
