Stock Farms in the District's Stock-Growing Push
The upper district is described as ideal for stock farming with rich ranges and native grasses. Local leaders including J F Simpson, Capt John Maxwell, Col JD Williams, and W Griffin purchase the Bone Camp area to create a vast stock farm focusing on sheep. Capt Wagner imports superior Electoral sheep with a trained European shepherd, signaling a shift to modern stock operations. Maj WS Grisham plans to invest time and capital in new enterprises, while W Sloan and others prepare to expand cattle and sheep herds, foreseeing a wave of unappropriated land used for grazing within a decade.
