A screw conveyor in the form of a rotatable tube with an internal helical baffle extends horizontally from the mixing chamber to a discharge chamber. The end of the screw conveyor in the mixing chamber has a scoop attached thereto which serves to agitate the lottery balls in the mixing chamber and to feed one ball to the conveyor with each rotation of the conveyor.
