The Arizona Miner Prescott, Arizona Territory October 25th, 1873 Mr. Geo. H. Kimball of Camp Date Creek, who is now at Fort Whipple, informs us that he will soon have 3,000 head of sheep and some cattle on Date Creek. He says wool can be carried from Date Creek to San Francisco for less per pound than from Southern California, which fact, when added to another- that Arizona wool is much better and cleaner than California wool— makes a strong case in favor of sheep farming here.
