Atkinson Park Addition.

The placing OF the Atkison Park
addition to the city Of Butler means
a new era In real estate for this COM
munity. There is little doubt but
what Butler has struck boom and
that property values are going up
all over the city. There are plenty
OF reasons for it, il not apparent at
this time. We believe a few months
more will show what is Sin the wind"
This is the most desirable residence
property in the city today, that can
be purchased as cheap. In some
parts Of the city residence lots are
selling for $40 per front foot. This
ground will be sold for much less. 1t
