H. & H. COFFEE AT FOOD SHOW
The Hoffman-Hayman Coffee com-pany are demonstrating the famous H. & H. blend coffee at The Light’s Cooking school. Attendants are given an opportunity to sample H. & H. coffee from the booth and of the Hoffman-Hayman company, states R. W. Menger, secretary and treasurer of the company.
Mrs. Chitwood, instructor, also is making use of H. & H. blend coffee in her daily lectures.
“A large amount of the high grade package coffee sold in San Antonio is of H. & H. blend, which shows the appreciation of local users for a different coffee. The unquestionable freshness is assured by the fact that it is roasted and packed right in San Antonio and may be obtained for im-mediate use,” he says.
Mr. Menger adds that the plant of the Hoffman-Hayman company re-cently has been enlarged by the addition of three roasting machines which he says will double the capacity.
