Fairlawn, and has subdivided it into
building lots. which he is now offering
for sale. The property is ornamented by
fine grove of trees, which afford ample
shade for the homes that will be built on
the land. For some time past Mr.. Broth

street and Minnesota avenue for a half
mile. and these streets are paved and as
phalted and have sewers gas and water
mains. Directly opposite the property is

SAUI'S ADDITION SHOWS
EFFECTS OF STEADY GROWTH
Section Now Contains More Than 100 Houses
and More Are in Course Of Construc-
tion-New School Soon Ready.

Like many other semi-suburban sec
tons of the District. Sauls Addition Is
moving forward rapidly. In fact the
term suburban" cannot we'll be applied
to this growing neighborhood, since 1t
really is an addition to the city proper
1t lies along the northern border of the
northwest section, and. although 1t has
attained the size which might entitle 1t
to recognition as a small town in itself,
the addition is really the habitat OF fully
five hundred residents of the District
who have elected to make their homes
just outside the solidly built-up area of
the city and in an area where they may
have the advantage of nearness to shop
ping center together with the typical sub
urban surroundings of detached houses
and large yards and gardens

brick. two stories in height, and there
will be four rooms to the floor. At the
present time the structure stands COM
pleted to the top Of the second story
level. and it will be under roof about the
middle of this month. The building Is
eighty feet square. and it stands IN 10,
which will afford ample playground
space. The Hoge & Luebkert Co.. con-
tractors, are in charge of the construc
ton.
The rapid upbuilding OF Saul's Addition,
like the improvement of other outlying
property, has been a material factor in in
creasing the tax income of the Dstrlct
government. 1t was only a few years ago
that the seventy-acre tract. which now
stands as a modern addition to the city,
was assessed as unirnproved ground al the
rate Of cents a square foot The same
ground now is assessed at 10 cents
square foot, and besides there are hun
dreds of thousands of dollars of increased
values in the improvements that nave
been placed on the land. In fact, there
are more than 100 houses and the houses
are assessed at an average valuation OF
s., 600 each.
