You might want to add the org repo if you want to get the latest version of org. I have the following in my init.el file (org in addition to melpa):


(when (>= emacs-major-version 24)
  (require 'package)
  (package-initialize)
  (add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/") t)
  (add-to-list 'package-archives '("org" . "http://orgmode.org/elpa/") t)
  )
