To the Editor:
Your recent editorial about lotteries has
just come to hand and I'd like to correct
some factual errors contained in it.
There is no research to suggest people
with lower incomes spend more on lot-
teries than any other group. Studies show,
in fact, lower and higher income groups
spend a little less than the middle income
groups. Indeed, with 85% of Ontario
households having participated in a lottery
at one time or another, it can be seen lot-
tery players come from every socio-
economic group.
You might also be interested to know the
reported average expenditure on lotteries
is $8.50 per month in Ontario.
Your suggestion that Ontario's lotteries
generate $3.3 million in -profit daily is in er-
ror. The figure is actually about $1.2
million.
As you point out lotteries have proven to
be most popular with the people of Ontario.
They enjoy the fun and entertainment of
playing their own games at the same time
knowing they are benefitting. from the pro-
ceeds of our games.
Benefits accruing to the province in the
form of lottery proceeds have reached $1.9
million since their inception.
Sports, fitness, recreational and cultural
projects have all been helped as have
hospitals, health and environmental -
health related research, social service pro-
jects aiid other emerging priorities.
I hope this clarifies the matter for your
readers.
Yours very truly,

the opportunity for you to monitor your in-
come and expenses, identify strengths and
weaknesses of your farm business, deter-
mine returns on investments and the pro-
fitability of your business. When the pro-
vincial report is produced for the 1986 sum-
maries of various enterprises you can
compare your business figures with the
averages in the report. A copy of the 1985
report is available from O. M.A.F.
We need all types of farm enterprises.

ment tool. Please contact Mac, Kate . or
Terry at OMAF, Walkerton (881-3301 or
