The Arizona Miner
Prescott, Arizona Territory
May 7th, 1870
From Camp Date Creek and Vicinity.
Our observing correspondent , at this place, which •is
seventy miles southwest from Prescott, on the Prescott
and La Paz wagon road, writes as follows, under date of
May 1st:
Since my last, nothing has occured worthy of note. We
have had no rain, and the crops are burning up. Dr.
Jones' train arrived today. The garden belonging to the
post is looking well, and the troops are having quite a
onions ,
nice selection of vegetables—
lettuce, peas,
spinach, radishes, turnips, etc. This garden I believe
is regularly irrigated. Mining matters remain in status
quo. Indians very quiet just at present. Weather warm;
thermometer ranging as high as 930 in the shade.
