STREETS LAID OUT
AT the addition. just as soon as posi-
BILE a large force of men will go to work
extending unfinished streets through it,
putting in good walks and planting Car
DINA poplar trees. The streets will be-
made to conform with those they are a
continuation of, which are fifty feet in
width. Alleys will be (14) fourteen feet.
They will be well graded and in every
respect be beauties.
CATER TO a WORKING MAN..
The new addition is located right in
the center of q bunch of eight of Ander-
sons best factories, the farthest being
only six squares. This location was es-
pecially cited as being just what they
want, as It is their intention of making
their great hit with the labOring men.
The addition will be laid off in about 800
lots, and these lots, with no discrimina-
ton rs to location, will go on the market
Mt $500 apiece. The terms will be So
down and 50 per month until paid out.
After $50 is paid in. a second mortgage
will be taken and the owner allowed to
build. This makes n splendid opporta-
pity for any laborer or anybody else to
obtain u home.
A NATURAL-GAs PLANT
VIII be put in and presented to the
property owners free OF charge. all the
requirement made is for them to keep it
in operation and repair. Although none
of the addition will DO reserved as a
factory site. If any come their way I'M
noticed Brother Stout will extend his
grabbers and set them down in one cor
her. The surrounding land, however,
affords excellent sites, and it is highly
probable that this will never be the case.
The new company starts out with
splendid prospects. and with plenty of
sapitai to put all of the plans through.
Although the Hardwood street-car line
already runs within three blocks of the
new addition, an effort will be made to
extend it out on Arrow avenue to the
center of that addition. Other incl
dental improvements will follow.
