K THE OREGON SUNDAY JOURNAL, PORTLAND. SUNDAY MORNING, APRIL a, 1808. T7T o 1 MM (J n U U ii Mi Prices of all business lots on Chautauqua Boulevarii Willis ; Boulevard and FowlerrAVeriuet in University Park will be advanced $100 per lot April 15th, 190a S --....4- The lumber business made Detroit, Mich., a city of 400,000 population, business lots now $4,000 per front foot Stockyards and packing houses gave Chicago its first boost towards greatness by adding 100,000 popula tion to its ranks, business lots now $10,000 per front foot; made Kansas City peer over all its rivals by adding to it 60,000 population, business lots how $3,500 per front foot; and made South Omaha a city of 40,000 popula tion, business lots $2,000 per front foot Wherever railroads centered there has sprung up a large city. What have we a reason to expect of University Park with its vast lumber business, its large stockyards and pack ing houses and all the great transcontinental railroads centering there, in addition to its rivers navigable to the commerce of the world? When we consider what has been done in otheKcities, have : we not good reason to ex pect to see lots sell on such streets as Chautauqua, Willis and Fowler for $1,000 per ,front foot within ten years ? Prices;, now $10 per Wont foot for residence lots up to $15 per front foot for , choice business lots. Terms 10 per cent cash, balance $10 monthly on one lot and $5 additional for each additional lot No interest if each installment be paid when or before due. By paying down $37.50 on a business lot before ; April 15 you can get advantage of theorise of $100 on April 15. A gain of $2.50 in ten days for each one dollar invested ought to be good enough for any person. Take St Johns car, get off at Chautauqua Boulevard where you will find my , office. 1 mm I ' STUDT THE PICTURE I Wly M kimwm ? I ili, ... . ... . ,. .:, " . ... .
