ROASTS COFFEE IN
TWELVE MINUTES
Is What the Heroy Tea Com
pany Claims Its New Ma
chine Does

The Hcroy Tea Company, at Seventh
and King streets, has q roasting ma
chine in its store that roasts, cleans
and cools coffee in twelve minutes. This
is a record which has never before
been made. as by the old way Of roast
ing IL took forty minutes. The above
company has a large number Of stores
in various cities in the New England
states. and in each store one Of the
embarrassing machines have been In
stalled. The machine was patented oy
en- old Holiander. and was brought TO
this country by a Mr. Heggelman. 1t
is therefore known as the Heggleman
machine. The Heroy Company is the
only concern using the machine in this
country.
The company buys all Of its coffee In
the green state. II Is all roasted at the
local store and consequently customers
can be furnisheu with freshly roasted
coffee al all times Twenty-Five pounds
of the green coffee is put in the roast
er at one time, and by the time 1t is
properly roasted afteen per cent. OF
that weight is lost
While the machine has proved a big
success. it is very simple contrivance.
An electric motor furnishes the power
while gas and air is used for roasting
the coffee.
The machine is similar to an ordi-
nary wheat fan. The roastor is perfor-
ated. and makes uhirty-eight revolu-
tions a minute. AT the top OF the
roaster is the gas burner and around
II about fifty small cups which catch
the coffee as the roaster goes round
These cups carry the coffee directly
over the gas flames and it is in this
way that the coffee is roasted. AS the
roastcr IS perforated all the dirt falls
through, which causes much of the les

Attached to the machine is small

TO prevent smoke. which would give
the coffee a bad flavor. The fan also
forces the smoke out pipe without it
getting in the roaster
On market days coffee is served at
the store, and 1t is claimed it is roast
ed, cleaned, cooled and ready to serve
in fourteen minutes
After the coffee is roasted it is dump
ed into a pan, where it is cooled by air

WILL FIGHT FOR
NATIONAL GUARD
Bill in Its Favor to be Pre-
sented Early to the Leg
islature
special % the Evenlhs Journal.

Dover, Dec. 2.-One OF the earliest
measures to be considered by the in
coming Legislature will be the Della
ware National Guard bill, which will
be presented at the beginning Of the
session, rather than run the risk Of an
other defeat by hurrying the bill
through at the close Of the session. The
bill provides for the reorganization Of
the citizen soldiery and also for two
weeks of field maneuvering, together
with an increase Of $4,000 in the an
nual State appropriation.
BY the passage Of the bill and the
reorganization of the infantry guards
men, the guard could be built up to a
membership of twelve companies to
the regiment, which is the Government
quota. It would also give a minimum
membership OF forty-eight men and
officers for each company, and a total
maximum membership of 500. This
would mean an appropriation Of SlS,in-
stead of 81 per soldier, the present ap-
propriation. When Il is remembered
that Rhode Island has an allowance of
s57, this amount of $1s seems small, in
deed
AS to the time of the encampment, 1t
is thought that the month of July
would be the most popular season, as 1t
is the general vacation month. The
young men Of the State could attend
the maneuvers better at this time than
any other Work is dull in the cities,
there is lull in farm work between
the berry and fruit seasons, and 1t is
the vacation period in the schools and
colleges.
A number OF the new membens of the
next Legislature have been interview
ed on the subject and they have ex-
pressed thir opinions on the bill, and
1t is believed that there is a strong sem
timent in favor OF its passage.
