“INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST”

The Indiana Spirit Quest series of geocaches will take you to a number of historic cemeteries built by Hoosier Pioneers. In just over a year and a half, the quest has grown to over three hundred seventy caches hidden in thirty-eight Indiana counties, and two Ohio counties, and the hiders have grown to eighteen cacher teams, most of which of which are comprised of Dogs and their Humans. Over 800 cacher teams have logged over 9,300 finds. One cache machine found 102 ISQ caches in a single day (daylight hours only).

INDIANA SPIRIT QUEST #384

IN THE SERVICE

Welcome to Eel River Church of the Bretheren Cemetery in Jackson Township, Koskiusko County. This is a pretty big place and there is a lot of cattle behind the cemetery. Don't whistle at them, or they'll come over wanting you to snack them ...

Livestock raising is undertaken in Indiana mostly as a specialty operation, with hogs, cattle, poultry, and sheep raised on feedlots or in large buildings designed especially for ease of feeding and waste disposal. Until the 1960s, livestock were found on most farms in Indiana, but, except in the hillier areas of southern Indiana, the conversion to specialization is now almost complete. The majority of Indiana farmers no longer include animal raising within their farming system. As a result, the fences put up to control animal movement that formerly characterized all farming areas have now largely disappeared on farms devoted to cash crop farming. Farmers specializing in hogs, cattle, poultry, or sheep buy or grow corn and soybeans for feeding to their livestock. Animals are bred in Indiana for sale to local slaughterhouses. In addition, large numbers of beef cattle and calves, as well as some hogs and sheep, are shipped from states west of the Mississippi to Indiana, where they are fattened and “finished” for market. Dairy cattle are raised mainly in northwestern Indiana and in the vicinity of major urban centers.
