Tulsa daily world. [volume] (Tulsa, Indian Territory [Okla.]) 1905-1919, 1911-05-13
NOTICE OF GENERAL AD-
VANCE in VALUES
At 6 o'clock Monday evening May 18th,
the price of every unsold lot in
Orchard Addition

~
will be increased 80 cents per foot, or $25
on each pair Of 25-foot lots.
We take this action in recognition of the
steady marked advance in values going on
all over the city, particularly since Orchard
Addition was opened to home builders six
weeks ago.
In this brief time two-thirds of our lots
have sold-bought by Tulsa people chiefly,
and more than thirty buyers expect to build
during the summer and fall.
They say that they find our prices much
lower than is asked for other property here;
that Orchard Addition is nearest the bust
ness center; less than a mile OUT has car
service along two sides, right at the door,
only three minutes ride east Of Main street,
and no railroad tracks to cross; that the
beauty of Orchard Addition, its convenience
to school, but two blocks away; it's fine, soft
water and its splendid elevation looking in
on the business district, make this property
the pick of all Tulsa.
1t seems that our reasonable restrictions
against selling to any but white people,
against "shacks' and all unsghtly and I'M
painted buildings, against cottages costing
itary and unwholesome features, receive
the absolute approval Of every buyer. They
see in this policy that will make Orchard
Addition one Of the prettiest, most home
like districts of the city.
Another significant thing is this: About
one buyer in every five is but recently come
to Tulsa from some other point in Oklaho-
ma Do you realize that there is setting in
a quiet but widespread, movement from all
over the state to Tulsa7 Hobart, Ell Reno,
Guthrie, Enid, Oklahoma City, Tahlequah,
Vinita, Muskogee Bartlesville, Sapulpa,
Okmulgee, are few of the cities whose
well-to-do citizens are quietly putting
money into Tulsa property, or coming here
to live.
The reason is not far to seek.
Oil, gas, coal and the river-cheap fuel,
cheap power and abundant water-the best
paying corn, cotton and stock district of
the state, four steam railroads and three
electric railways, a new factory added each
month, another wholesale or distributing
house a week, nearly half a million dollars
a month paid out in wages, $15,0OO,OOO
year in oil production cleared through this
city, one of the most attractive, healthful,
best paved, lighted and drained cities IN
the state, Tulsa is becoming recognized as
Oklahoma's solvent city, the city of re-
sources.
In 1900 Tulsa S population was 1890 and
postoffice receipts $2,954; last years census
gave us 1924 people and postal receipts
amounting to $69785. Tulsa will surely
have 100000 population in 1920, and all
property values will then be many times
what they are today. He who buys will
profit by the advance; he who does not will
suffer by it.
Remember, until o'clock Monday even
ing, the 18th, but no longer, prices and
terms on Orchard Addition lots will remain
as at present:
$95 to $225 lot, 81 down and ST. week
for Is foot lots sold only in pairs; no taxes
for this year or next no interest at all; no
payments while you are sick. We will help
you to build home. You can buy to-
day, commence building tomorrow, and pay
out at your convenience.
