Things for Far West

Tho lumber Industry OF the North,

the great fertile Middle West look
extremely promising. long expected
rain has come In the extreme West.
and what n moro important there
Is a spirit OF optimism in the Mid

This sums up tho opinion OF c, J,

tho Oakland Motor Car company
from personal observation and dis
cusslon with business men and
farmers during three weeks trip
TO the Pacific coast with George H.

Ruena= Aires, Jan. 23.-The
abiding hope of the Argentine,
in good times and bad, is to buy
national lottery ticket for a
Epeso or two, win a million dol
lars, buy a battleship, promote
revolution, or live in luxury,

| the rest of his life, according TO
his peculiar inclination.
And some one wins million
dollars once a year-usually just
before Christmas-and four times
month throughout the year a
fortune is distributed by the lot
/ tery administration, but the ma
iority Of the hopeful realize only
depleted bank account after
bucking the game persistently for
months, and number who have
helped to support the lottery
have eventually been willing, or
compelled, to accept the charity
maintained by the proceeds of
the gamble.
The dearth of savings bank
accounts in Argentina is attri-
buted to the lottery, which nets

a year, and is used to supports
o,o,pizod cbarifieS
Hundreds of eager persons
gather to watch the drawings,
which are from five big bowls
into which balls bearing The
numbers from 0 TO 9 are poured.
A street urchin or some passer-
by is called in to draw the num-
bers, which are written down,
from left to right, as drawn from
each bowl, the result being the
winning number.
At recent drawing a man who
saw the first two numbers on his
ticket drawn could stand the
strain no longer. He tainted dead
away. Women often scream when
they, appear within a draw or two
Of winner.
The lottery has done some
strange things to the Argentines
here. At least two large stores
in the heart of the city were
started with lottery winnings. An
Italian. who had a calm faith
that he would win sometime,
bought the same number week
after week-and finally won a
million dollars. He bought the first
passage he could get to Italy and
is rich man there. A business
man, who was about broke, won
years ago, and has retired from
business to participate in politics.
a man who worked as a flag
man at a railroad crossing went
into a pool with four neighbors
and bought numbers for the mil
lion prize and won. He imme-

cording to her hearts desire in
a fashionable uptown apartment,

crossing, where he is still flag
