stock and take my chances on some rain if I lose I lose just like here at my gaming tables but if I win I'll make a profit that's why I can afford to run the risk of losing well I had 420 head of cattle to live this morning give me the cash in there yours that's the deal how about the rest of you wait a minute Joe not so fast keep out of this Rodgers George Hills has enough money to fight this thing through and he doesn't worry about going broke what does he care about how the rest of these ranchers live you all heard mr. Carver's say he stands to make a profit if it rains he sure does you'll make a fortune I told you I was willing to gamble suppose it isn't a game suppose my I tell you we can get rain here right away will you listen to me yeah all right I've taken it on myself to contact sky waters incorporated and they've assured me they can give us artificial rain within a matter of days they've done it in Oregon New Mexico and they're sure they can do it here but it'll be expensive if it's so expensive why doesn't mr. George be hills himself financed it he needs water as badly as all of you he's interested but his lawyers have advised him against it in case of a flash flood or a cloud burst he might be held legally responsible oh it sounds like a fake to me what if it doesn't work then you've lost all your cabin you haven't gotten a cent for them you all read the papers you know it's worked in other parts of the country and there's no reason why it shouldn't work here I don't know all right I make a motion your gear to work the last time we needed money we gave a benefit for somebody and raised plenty now that we're doing it for ourselves maybe we can raise even more what do you say why'd you go out have some fun I'll take over for a while thanks Phil ha Pollux you don't mind I'll take care of this house gotta have the money first you know this is for benefit kill I'll take care of it baby do you do oh I giving it to my chairman mm-hmm they are hey boss it's Phil yeah you know I was gonna ask him a ton of sugar I have an announcement to make to your generous donations we've now raised enough money to hire sky waters incorporated to bring us rain I'll get in touch with them this afternoon and I'm sure by tomorrow morning the plane and the sinus will be here they're doin a door situation oh no I don't see why they're making such a fuss over a Rainmaker if I had my plane here I can see the clouds myself you pilot private license over 4,000 hours thank you so you fly a plane it gives me an idea see it's pay dirt traitor Thanks that back ooh girl Lady Jaye one just close your eyes I'm Stan Benson are you mr.
