DOUGHNUTS ARE BETTER IF COOKED A FEW AT A TIME Likewise Coffee Has More Delicious Flavor When~ Roasted in Small Lots Experience shows that if too | many doughnuts are put into the ‘hot fat at once, the cooking process is hindered. The temperature of the fat is reduced and the dough- nuts become greasy. A similar situation occurs when coffee is roasted in bulk. It is diffi- cult to apply the heat evenly, an as a result some of the coffee berries may be overdone and some underdone. Such variation in the | roast causes disappointing varia- tion in flavor. Hills Bros. overcame this by in- venting and patenting a process— Controlled Roasting—that roasts every coffee berry evenly. With automatic control of heat and speed of operation, a few pounds at a time pass through the roasters. Uniformity of roast and unequaled flavor is the result. Hills Bros. Coffee is always fresh John Martin, son of Mr. nn,d“when y,oub%befiuee it is packed ! s process takes air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, from the can and keeps it out.

In the revision are clauses providing for the roative | ,ballot system and giving the Ter- | ritorial Canvassing Board broader powers in inquiring into elections. The measure, Mr. Dimond said, )is very largely similar to one on the same subject introduced by Mr. Winn in the 1926 session and which was passed by the House. | Clarify College Tund |~ To place within the power of the |Bcard of Trustees of the Alaska | Agricultural College and School of | Mines undisputed authority to con- trol its own funds, including thoss | appropriated by the Federal gov- ernment and also Territorial ap- | bropriaticns, is the object of a | measure introduced in the Senate by Mr. Hess by request. A dis- | pute arose some two years ago over the methods of disbursements in which the Trustees and Terri- torial auditor were not able to agree. The purpose of the bill is to settle this matter and leave the fund in the hands of Collega authorities. The third measure introduced in the Senate today, was by Mr. Dimond to appropriate $7,500 for the erection of a school building at Matanuska. The Senate passed three bills and one resolution this morning and had several other measures up for final consideration on the cai- endar this afternoon. It passed a bill making a slight amendment to | the Teachers' Pension law, one iamending section 1865 providing | for the competency of certain evi- |dence in probate cases, and one | authorizing the expenditure of | $7.500 from Divisional road funds d | of the Second and Fourth divisions for repair and maintenance of telephone lines between Tanana and Unalakleet. | It also passed a resolution ask- | ing the Federal Radio Commission |to grant an application of the Anchorage racio station for an | increase in power from 100 to 500 | watts. t 7Y CANADIENS AND BLACK HAWKS IN TIE, HOCKEY CUP MONTREAL, April 13—The Les Canadiens of Montreal evened up on the Stanley Cup Hockey Se- ries with the Chicago Black Hawks {by winning the fourth game 4 to 2 last Saturday night.
