by Ashley FlynnWhen thinking of Wabash County, oil

production does not usually come tomind, but there are currently over adozen active oil well permits within thecounty and hundreds of expired, inac-tive or plugged and abandoned wells.

According to the Wabash CountyMuseum website, oil has been an impor-tant part of our economy since 1912when the first well was drilled in thecounty on the Lucy Courter lease. An oilboom in 1939 led to 120 wells being drilledin the area yielding 800,000 barrels of oil.Oil is still extracted in the county today,but at a much slower rate, as much of theformations have already been drilled.

Recently, Bay Geophysical, Inc., ofTraverse City, Mich., was hired by an oilcompany to conduct a seismic survey toexplore the possibility of oil and naturalgas traps. Pink flags were positionedalong several Wabash County roads tomark spots for carrying out seismic geo-logical testing. Since drilling wells is acostly process, this testing is used to mapout underground geology to construct apicture of the stability and conditions ofthe layers of rock. This helps companiesdetermine whether or not oil or naturalgas traps lie within the rock and avoiddry holes.

While it is not necessary in Indiana toget a permit for seismic testing (legisla-tion repealed the requirement about 10years ago), companies are required to geta permit from the DNR Division of Oiland Gas to drill a well. Companies mustdetermine a precise location and the typeof servicing. If the well is productive,companies must report what method wasused and how much oil was produced.

As recently as July 2012, if hydraulicfracturing, a process that pushes thou-sands of gallons of water and chemicalsinto the ground to create manmade frac-tures to release gas or oil, is used, compa-nies must submit a more detailed report,and unlike other types of wells, a reportmust be filed before they start theprocess. They must include the chemi-cals used as well as MSDS sheets on thechemical manufacturing plans for thewastewater, and how much water is

being used for the process. This type of drilling typically raises

concern to local citizens because of thechemical make-up used, amount ofwater needed and wastewater created,but the DNR inspects the safety of thedrilling before it is done.

Although less than 30 percent of wellsin Indiana use hydraulic fracturing, andno wells in Wabash County currently usethe process, Herschel McDivitt, directorof the DNR Oil and Gas Division told ThePaper of Wabash it is always a possibili-ty.

“Most operators in Indiana don’tbelieve it’s necessary to increase produc-tivity. They look to see if previous wellsin the area used hydraulic fracturing,but if they haven’t it is not likely thatfuture ones will either,” said McDivitt.Most hydraulic fracturing in Indianaoccurs in the southern part of the state.

When searching for drilling locations,companies often search oil and gas leas-es. When a company wants to search foroil on a property, they must obtain an oiland gas lease from the landowner.

According to the DNR website, thelease is a legal contract that grants explo-ration and development rights to subsur-face oil and gas deposits.

When presented with a leasing oppor-tunity, it is recommended that landown-ers consult a professional before agree-ing to terms as there are risks and pay-outs involved. Just because someoneenters a land agreement does not meandrilling will occur on the property.

Landowners typically receive anupfront payment, annual rental pay-ments and a percentage of the share inproduction.

Although leases could lead to a decentpayout, the DNR suggests other things toconsider such as land disturbance. TheDNR website states that leases terminateonce, “the primary term expires or wheneconomic production or shut-in royaltypayments cease during the secondaryterm.”

OIL WELLS such as this one off of SR13 north of Wabash have been a fixture of theWabash County Community since 1912. Recently, Bay Geophysical Inc., of TraverseCity, Mich., was hired by an oil company to conduct a survey to detect the possibility ofoil and natural gas reserves throughout the county.

Loyal Order of MooseSupreme Governor toVisit Local Lodge

By Shaun TilghmanNorth Manchester

News JournalNorth Manchester

Moose Family Center#1518, located at 207E. Main St., turned 99years old last Tuesday,and several eventswere planned lastweek for the member-ship to celebrate theofficial founding ofthe local lodge, whichoccurred on April 2,1914.

“If you think back, Idon’t know how manybusinesses in theNorth Manchesterarea can say they’ve

been in business for99 years, and this is afraternal organiza-tion,” said Moose#1518 AdministratorJerry Johnson.“During those 99years, the Moose hasmade a lot of changes.From what I under-stand, they startedacross the street thenmoved over hereabove what used to beIndiana LawrenceBank and rented fromthem for years. Thenthey purchased thelower part of thebuilding here whenthe bank moved overto its new location inthe 1960s. There hasbeen some remodel-ing, but we’ve been

North Manchester Moose Family Center Celebrates 99th Birthday

here ever since.”In addition to cele-

brating the 99-yearmilestone, Johnsonexplained that theyare also starting to getgeared up for theircentennial event nextyear. This year repre-sents another mile-stone for the fraternalorganization, asMooseheart ChildCity & School, locatednear Aurora, Ill., willcelebrate its centenni-al birthday.

In 1888, a physicianfrom Louisville, Ky.,organized a smallgroup of men in theparlor of his homeand founded the Loyal

Order of Moose. Theoriginal members arebelieved to have hadno further agendathan to form a band ofmen’s social clubs.

By the early 1890s

there were lodges inCincinnati (Ohio) andSt. Louis (Mo.), aswell as the smallerIndiana towns ofCrawfordsville andFrankfort, but theorganizer became dis-satisfied and left theinfant order beforethe turn of the centu-ry. A young govern-ment clerk fromIndiana envisionedbuilding the tinyMoose fraternity intoa means of providingprotection and securi-ty for a largely work-ing-class member-ship.

By 1912, the organi-zation’s officers hadeven made plans for a“Moose Institute” tobe built somewhere inthe Midwest to pro-vide a home, school-ing, and vocationaltraining to children ofdeceased Moose mem-bers. OhioCongressman JohnLentz, a member ofthe Moose SupremeCouncil, proposed thename “Mooseheart,”because it would

“always be the placewhere the Moose fra-ternity will collective-ly pour out its heart,

its devotion and suste-nance, to the childrenof its members in(continued on page 4)

tively pour out itsheart, its devotionand sustenance, tothe children of itsmembers in need.”

United States VicePresident ThomasMarshall, who wasraised in NorthManchester, spoke atthe Mooseheart dedi-cation ceremony onJuly 27, 1913. At thattime, Mooseheartconsisted of a fewramshackle buildingsand a circus tent thatwas erected to pro-vide cover for the cer-emony.

Along with otherunits of MooseInternational, theLoyal Order of Moosesupports the opera-tion of Mooseheart,which is now a 1,000-acre community forchildren and teens inneed. Today,Mooseheart is amodel community forchildren that acceptsapplications of allchildren in need – notjust those from Moosefamilies – and pro-vides them with food,clothing, shelter, edu-cation, and training.

The Loyal Order ofMoose also supportsaged members whoare having trouble-making ends meet inretirement through“Moosehaven,” a 72-acre retirement com-munity for its mem-bers. Located nearJacksonville, Fla.,Moosehaven, or the“City ofContentment,” hasprovided a comfort-able home, a widearray of recreationalactivities, and com-prehensive health-care to retired mem-bers since the fall of1922.

Additionally, Mooselodges – roughly 1,600throughout NorthAmerica – contributean average of $80 mil-lion in donations andvolunteer hours tolocal communities,according to theMoose InternationalM e m b e r s h i pDepartment. The

Loyal Order of Moosealso conducts numer-ous sports and recre-ational programs inlocal lodges and fami-ly centers, and on afraternity-wide basis.

“We’ve alwaysgiven back to thecommunity,” Johnsonstated. “I don’t knowfor sure how many ofthe 99 years we’vesponsored local littleleague teams, but Iknow that once westarted we’ve neverdropped it.”

“We’re also a mem-ber of the NorthManchester Chamberof Commerce andManchester MainStreet,” he continued,“as well as beinginvolved with theM a n c h e s t e rShepherd’s Center,FunFest, and othercommunity projects.We also sponsor twoSunshine Kids up atMooseheart. We justlove being active inthe community, whilesupporting and giv-ing back to the com-munity at the sametime.”

According toJohnson, the localMoose currently has350 men membersand approximately200 women members,or Women of theMoose. The Women ofthe Moose, originallyreferred to as the“Women ofMooseheart Legion,”received formalrecognition as aMoose auxiliary in1913. The NorthManchester Moosebecame a FamilyCenter in the 1980s,and the NorthManchester Womenof the Moose #866was established onDec. 18, 1946.

“In 1946, we allowedwomen to becomemembers of ourMoose, and that was abig change at thatparticular time,”Johnson explained.“We’ve also been try-ing to be more of afamily oriented fra-ternity where chil-

dren are allowed tocome in, and with thenew smoking lawsthat were passed,because we are a fam-ily center, our mem-bership decided to gononsmoking as well.Also, in the last fouror five years we’vehad a lot of memberbenefits and familydinners, but you stillneed to be 21 years ofage to join.

In terms of mem-bership, the NorthManchester lodge isthird smallest of thenine lodges in theNorthern IndianaDistrict, whichincludes Plymouth,Goshen, Warsaw,Rochester, etc. “Someof those lodges arethree times the sizewe are, but if youtake it per capitawe’re doing prettygood,” Johnsonadded.

“Our lodge hasbeen doing very wellfor a small lodge in asmall town,” he con-tinued. “So, I thinkthat’s part of why theSupreme Governor,James Henderson Sr.,is interested in check-ing us out – he’s com-ing for a meet andgreet on April 12, buthe’s visiting severalother lodges that dayas well.”

James HendersonSr., who is SupremeGovernor of theLoyal Order ofMoose, will stop bythe local lodge as partof his travels acrossthe state. He becamethe Moose fraterni-ty’s chief presidingofficer in July of 2012,elected by vote ofSupreme Lodge dele-gates to a one-yearterm as SupremeGovernor, at the orga-nization’s 124thI n t e r n a t i o n a lConvention inTampa, Fla.

Henderson previ-ously served asSupreme JuniorGovernor, during2011-12, and SupremePrelate, during 2010-11. He has served on

North Manchester Moose Family Center... continued from page 3the Supreme Councilsince June of 2002,and prior to that, hehad served sevenyears on theMoosehaven Board ofDirectors and 11years before that onthe InternationalEndowment FundBoard.

“As far as I know,we have no knowl-edge of a SupremeGovernor coming toour lodge in recentyears,” Johnson stat-ed. “Usually he goes

to some of the largerlodges, but he’s heardgood things about ourlodge, and he is alsointerested in seeingour robes, because wehave the only full setof the original cere-monial robes, wornby lodge officers from1888 until the 1930s,approximately.”

Johnson concludedby saying thatThomas Williams isthe only living mem-ber of the local lodgethat has reached the

degree of Pilgrim,which is the highestof the four levels oflodge membership.Also, the followingNorth Manchesterlodge members havebelonged to theMoose for 50 years ormore: Eddie Arnold,Joe Conrad, BartCorricelli, ThomasHardy, Lyle Heath,Richard McKee, BobMontel, EugeneSnyder, JamesStewart, and RobertStewart.

The NorthManchester MooseFamily Center #1518members will havethe unique opportu-nity to meet MooseSupreme GovernorJames Henderson Sr.when he visits thelocal lodge on Friday,April 12, at 2 p.m. Formore informationabout this event, orabout becoming amember, contact thelodge at 260-982-8211.

Even though theDNR stocked fewerwalleyes in Sylvanand Winona lakesduring the past threeyears, studies showthat’s had no effect onthe number ofwalleyes that sur-vived.

That meansanglers will find plen-ty of walleyes tocatch in those north-eastern Indianalakes. It also appearsto mean factors otherthan stocking ratesplay more importantroles in determiningwalleye survival.

From 2001 through2009, DNR fisheriesbiologists stocked fin-gerling walleyesannually at the rate of20 per acre at Sylvanin Noble County andWinona in KosciuskoCounty. That rate wascut to 15 per acrefrom 2010 through2012. Survival ratesone year later weregenerally greater atthe lower stockingrate than at the high-er one.

Biologists assesswalleye survivalbased on catch ratesof age-1 walleyes oneyear after stocking.Specialized boatsequipped with electri-cal generators areused to capture thefish. The walleyes arethen measured andscale samples aretaken for age analy-sis. The unharmedwalleyes are thenreleased into the lake.

From 2002 through

Walleyes still abundant inSylvan and Winona lakes

2007, catch rates ofage-one walleyes atSylvan averaged 21.8per hour. Catch ratesfrom 2010 through2012 averaged 29.8 perhour.

That means theaverage catch rate ofwalleyes at Sylvanincreased 37 percentwhen the stockingrate was reduced 25percent. The highestcatch rate came froma stocking of 15 peracre.

At Winona, walleyecatch averaged 11.9when stocked at thehigher rate. At thelower stocking rate,catch rates averaged12.5 per hour. That’sfive percent morewalleyes despitestocking 25 percentfewer.

Last fall the stock-ing rate was cut againat both lakes to tenfingerlings per acre.

This rate has beensuccessful in main-taining walleye fish-eries at Crooked andWall lakes in SteubenCounty and at PrettyLake in LaGrangeCounty.

Since 2001 a total of140,000 walleyes havebeen stocked intoSylvan. Winona hasreceived 120,000.

Adult walleyes cap-tured last fall meas-ured up to 20 incheslong at Sylvan, and upto 24 inches atWinona.

The walleyes thatare no longer stockedin Sylvan and Winonaare being transferredto Maxinkuckee inMarshall County andClear in SteubenCounty.

To be kept byanglers, a walleyemust be at least 14inches long.

More than half ofsmokers in Indianaattempted to quitsmoking in the past 12months, a move thatcould save the statebillions in health carecosts, since each packof cigarettes has animpact of $35, says anew study from BallState University.

“Burden ofSmoking amongAdults in Indiana, areport by Ball State’sGlobal HealthInstitute (GHI) basedon 2011 data from theCenters for DiseaseControl (CDC), found

57.5 percent ofHoosiers tried to quitin the last year. Thisincluded study partic-ipants who smoked atleast 100 cigarettes intheir lifetime andwho, at the time ofsurvey, smoked eitherevery day or somedays.

The study alsofound that in 2010,9,700 Hoosiers diedand $4.7 billion wasspent on annualhealth and other eco-nomic costs as aresult of tobacco use.

Nationally, ciga-rette-smoking costs

More than half of smokers in Indiana tried to quit in the last yearmore than $193 bil-lion, including $97 bil-lion in lost productivi-ty and $96 billion inhealth care expendi-tures, said KerryAnne McGeary, GHIdirector and PhyllisA. Miller professor ofhealth economics.

“People are tryingto quit because theyrealize the dangers ofsmoking,” she said.“Cessation can signif-icantly reduce therisk of suffering fromsmoking- related dis-eases. Counseling andmedication can morethan double thechance that a smokerwho tries to quit willsucceed.”

The study alsofound:

Smoking contin-ues to a regular habit

for 25.6 percent ofIndiana’s population,ranking Indiana sev-enth in nation forhighest percentage ofsmokers.

The percentage ofadults who reportbeing current smok-ers decreases aseither income or edu-cation levels increase.

About 28 percent ofmales report smoking

compared to 24 per-cent of females.

McGeary points outthat cigarette smok-ing is a leading causeof preventable deathin the United States.Smoking causes can-cer, heart disease,stroke and lung dis-eases includingemphysema, bronchi-tis and chronic air-way obstruction

Northfield the loss.The Norse struggleddefensively, commit-ting four errors.

Pitcher RyanKeaffaber took theloss, which was justthe third loss of hiscareer.

“We played verywell for four inningsbut let this one slipaway to a very goodbaseball team inFloyd Central. Toughloss for Ryan(Keaffaber) whopitched fairly well forthe first time out,”said coach TonyUggen.

In game one of theSaturday double head-er with Austin, theNorse were cruisingwith a 2-0 lead behindpitcher Andy Roser,heading to the bottomof the seventh whenAustin plated a coupleruns to force extrainnings. The game

would end up goingnine innings whenthe Norse scored inthe top of the ninthand held on.

Ryan Keaffaber andJoseph Ross led theNorse with two hitseach.

Austin had the win-ning run at secondwith one out in theseventh, winning runat third with one outin the eighth andbases loaded and twoouts in the ninth, butthe Norse held onwith some good pitch-ing and defense.

Coach Uggen said“Andy (Roser) pitchedvery well and gotsome good relief fromJoseph Ross who didwhat we needed himto do to keep us in it.Andy did a great jobcoming in to get thefinal out (pop toCollin Dawes at sec-ond). I was especially

happy with the factwe didn’t panic whenwe had a couple closecalls that didn’t goour way late. We couldhave made that anexcuse but we stayedunder control and gotthe job done.”

The Norse fellbehind early in gametwo, trailing 5-0 aftertwo innings. TheNorse gave up twowalks and committedtwo errors the firsttwo innings.Northfield wouldscore two runs in thefifth and three in thesixth to trail 7-5 beforeeventually falling 8-5.

Remington Monce,a freshman, pitchedvery well over threeinnings in relief inhis debut. ShaneVigar pitched oneinning as well allow-ing a run.

“Our defense wasshoddy for the third

Apache baseball teamstarted the seasonplaying in theBlackford invitationalSaturday, April 6.

The Apaches brokeout the long ball, hit-ting six home runs forthe day to defeat Wes-Del 18-9 in game oneto setup the champi-onship game withMuncie Central, whohad defeatedBlackford. After hit-ting three home runsin game one, Wabashmatched that feat ingame two, topping theBearcats 14-11 to winthe tourney.

The Apaches madea statement early,when leadoff hitterLandon Cole blasted asolo shot over the cen-ter field fence to startthe game. Wabashwouldn’t stop there asKyle Kelsheimerreached on an errorand was broughthome with a single

from SheaBeauchamp.

Grant Sailors wouldthe lace a line drivesingle against thefence to put runnerson first and third.Beauchamp wouldthen score on a passedball. Kody Fullerwould single andTyler Brewer walk toload the bases whenIsaiah Smith singledhome the fourth runof the inning.

The Apaches,behind starting pitch-er Roger Davis, werecruising with a 7-3lead after five inningswhen the bats went offagain.

In the sixth withtwo out and the basesempty, Smith woulddraw a walk and stealsecond. Landon Colewould then singlehome Smith to lead 8-3. Kelsheimer wouldreach on an error forthe second timebefore SheaBeauchamp blasted a

three run shot to goup 11-3.

Wes-Del, however,would not go away,scoring four runs inthe bottom of theinning to make it 11-7with an inning to go.

The Apache attackwas not over as theywould erupt for sevenruns in the seventhwith seven hits thatwas highlighted by aTyler Brewer homerun to make it 18-7.The shot wasBrewer’s first homerun of his high schoolcareer. Wes-Del wouldscore two runs in thebottom of the inningwith two long balls forthe final 18-9 score.

Wabash got off to ahot start again in thec h a m p i o n s h i p .Landon Cole led offwith a single and wasbrought home byShea Beauchamp’ssecond long ball ofthe day to take a quick2-0 lead.

Still up just 2-0

going into the thirdthe Apaches would goagain. Beauchamp ledoff with a walk andwas drove in with aRoger Davis double.With two outs DevinBitzel and TylerBrewer drove in runswith hits and theApaches led 5-0 afterthree.

Up 5-0 after four,Wabash looked likethey were going tomake it a short game.Devin Bitzel wouldsingle and IsaiahSmith was hit by apitch. With runnerson first and thirdLandon Cole wouldlay down a squeezebunt that scoredBitzel.

An over throw onthe same play scoredSmith and left Cole onthird leading 7-0. KyleKelsheimer wouldthen drop down a sec-ond squeeze thatscored Cole for an 8-0lead. SheaBeauchamp would

launch a shot that isstill flying somewherefor his second homerof the game and thirdof the day to put theApaches up 10-0.

With everyonethinking the possibili-ty of a five inninggame, the Bearcatsthought somethingdifferent, scoring fiveruns in the bottom ofthe inning and chas-ing starting pitcherGrant Sailors fromthe mound.

The Apachespushed across onerun in the top of thesixth to lead 11-5before the Munciemomentum made it anail biter. TheBearcats would scoresix runs in the bottomof the sixth to knotthe score at 11 with aninning to go.

Justin Holley gotthings going in theseventh with a singleand was followed by asingle from TylerBrewer to put runners

on first and third.Isaiah Smith wouldthen crunch the 6thWabash long ball onthe day to put theApaches up 14-11.Smith would thencome in to pitch inrelief of Holley, hit-ting the first batterbefore retiring thenext three to seal thewin and the tourney.

Landon Cole hadeight hits, including ahome run to lead offgame one. SheaBeauchamp hit threehomeruns and had 8RBI’s to lead theApache offensiveattack. Isaiah Smithand Tyler Brewer alsohit a homerun eachfor Wabash. ElevenWabash hitters picked

straight game and youcan’t do that againstdecent baseballteams. Austin had fivegames already undertheir belts coming inthe double header,which helped, but wehave to play smarterthan we did at times.You have to throwstrikes which we did-n’t early and have tomake routine playswhich we didn’t dowell all weekend,”said Coach Uggen.

Civil War historywill come alive for vis-itors who experienceFaces of the CivilWar, a traveling exhi-bition created andmanaged by theIndiana HistoricalSociety. The exhibi-tion will be on displayfrom April 16 – May23, at the Center forHistory, 122 E. MainStreet in NorthManchester.

Faces of the CivilWar, designed by theHIS exhibition staff,was originally con-ceived as an exhibi-tion for the Indiana

History Train, whichtravels throughoutthe state each fall.Nearly all imagesused in the new trav-eling exhibition comefrom the collections ofthe Indiana HistoricalSociety. Hands-on,interactive elementshave been added toenhance the viewerexperience.

The exhibitionbrings to life the sto-ries of many Hoosierswhose lives weretouched, and in somecases taken, by theCivil War. Not all arewell known or

Traveling Exhibition of faces of the Civil War makers history personrevered- many werejust everyday citizensfulfilling their dutiesto their friends, fami-ly, state and country.Rather than focusingon statistics and largescale battles, Faces ofthe Civil War illus-trates how regularpeople coped with thetragic experiences ofthe day- all from anIndiana perspective.

“So many of theCivil War soldiers pic-tured in our library’scollection areacknowledged at bestwith name and rank-we don’t know theirstories,” says FaithRevell, director ofHIS Exhibitions. “So

when you come acrossreal people who are soyoung and handsomeand vital, and realizethat their lives are cutshort, it brings thisold history home andmakes it relevant.

Non-soldier storiesfeatured in the exhibi-tion include the sto-

ries of women whoserved both on thehome front and on thebattlefield. LovinaSteight followed herhusband into battleand was capturedmore than once by theConfederate armywhile tending to herhusband as well as his

wounded and dyingcomrades. Streight,along with her hus-band, was buried atCrown Hill Cemeteryin Indianapolis withfull military honors.

Hours of operationfor the Center forHistory are weekdays10 a.m. – 4 p.m. and

Sunday 1 p.m. – 4 p.m.For more informa-tion, please call 260-982-0672 or visitnmanchesterhistory.org Watch for twomore travelingexhibits coming toNorth Manchester inJuly and October.

A Monthly Guide To Managing Your Wealth From

FIRST MERCHANTSTRUST COMPANY

What type ofinvestor areyou? Aggressiveand risk toler-ant? Conserva-tive and riskaverse? Orsomewhere inthe middle?Your ability to

tolerate risk influences the invest-ment choices you make — and, ulti-mately, may have an impact on yoursuccess at reaching your financialgoals.

Risk Tolerance Isn’t Static

Ongoing market volatility can affectan investor’s risk tolerance. Duringan extended period of extreme mar-ket fluctuations, investors who previ-ously had a high capacity for riskmay find their comfort levels drop-ping. Similarly, prolonged market up-swings may encourage previouslyconservative investors to invest moreheavily in the market. As a result,they take on additional investmentrisk.

Capacity Is Another Component

Your ability to accept risk also de-pends on financial and other consid-erations, such as your time horizonfor tapping your assets. Consider how

much money you could affordto lose if investment valuesdropped appreciably. If invest-ment losses would undermineyour financial security, and youhave a short time frame untilyou’ll need your funds, your ca-pacity to take risk may be lim-ited.

Perform a Reality Check

A long stretch of either strongor weak market performancecan convince investors that thecurrent trend will continue in-definitely. Perceived risk —how much risk you think an in-vestment holds — is a subjec-tive gauge. Thus, yourperception of an investment’srisk might not be in sync withits actual risk. Because your risktolerance may change overtime, consider revisiting thesubject periodically — ideallyduring your annual investmentperformance review.

Our financial professionals canhelp you reassess your risk toler-ance and the level of risk inyour portfolio. Call us at 260-563-4116 or 800-205-3464 formore information.

No changes in Indiana muskie fishing rulesNow that Michigan

has restricted anglersto keeping onemuskie per year andhas implemented aharvest tag system,will Indiana muskieanglers face a similarchange?

Not likely—at least

for now.Current rules allow

I n d i a n a - l i c e n s e danglers to take onemuskie per day inIndiana. There are nolimits in Indiana onthe number ofmuskies an Indiana-licensed angler can

take per year.The only tags

required in Indianafor harvest pertain todeer and turkey hunt-ing—not fishing.

Michigan’s muskietag is free. Any anglerwho catches a muskiemust release the fish

if that person doesnot possess a harvesttag.

“We understandwhy Michigan is cut-ting muskie harvestand requiring amuskie tag,” said JedPearson, an IndianaDNR fisheries biolo-

Rainbow trout arecoming to Maple Lakein Terre Haute.

The DNR, in cooper-ation with TerreHaute Parks andRecreation, will stockthe trout at the citynature park lake atthe corner of U.S. 41and Maple Avenue nolater than April 1.

“The city hasshown a real commit-ment to fishing and

other outdoor activi-ties by seeking grantsand expanding its citypark system,” saidDNR fisheries biolo-gist David Kittaka.

In fall 2011, the DNRstocked channel cat-fish in the 11-acre laketo provide additionalfishing opportunities.A new DNR boat rampwas installed in fall2012. The lake isrestricted to boats

with electric motors.Indiana-licensed

anglers fishing fortrout are required tohave an $11trout/salmon privi-lege stamp. Anglersalso can fish for troutfor one day by pur-chasing a one-dayfishing license for $9,which includes one-day trout/salmonfishing privileges. Allcan be purchased at

http://www.in.gov/dnr/fishwild/5330.htmor anywhere licenseselse are sold.

The daily bag limitfor trout is five. Theminimum size limit isseven inches.

The inland troutprogram is fundedthrough the troutstamp.

Rainbow trout coming to Terre Haute lake

gist. “They are send-ing a message thatmuskies are scarceand the tags providebiologists a good wayto track long-termtrends in harvest.”

Pearson, however,does not think muskiefishing in Indiana isbeing affected byanglers harvestingthe fish.

“Based on surveysconducted at severalIndiana lakes, fewanglers keepmuskies,” Pearsonsaid. “They are at thetop of the list forc a t c h - a n d - r e l e a s efishing.”

Michigan alsoimposes a much high-er size limit onmuskies thanIndiana.

A muskie must be

36 inches or larger tobe taken in Indiana,whereas muskiestaken in southernMichigan must be atleast 42 inches. Atsome Michiganwaters, muskies mustbe 50 inches long.

“At Lake Webster,our premier muskielake, male muskies donot grow much afterthey reach 36 incheslong,” said Pearson.“Female muskiesgrow faster but fewgrow beyond 44 inch-es. It’s very rare to seea 50-incher.”

IncreasingIndiana’s size limit,therefore, would nothave much of animpact on muskie sizebecause so fewmuskies are taken at

any size. Michigan also dif-

fers from Indiana onwhen anglers can fishfor muskies.Michigan imposes aclosed season fromMarch 16 until thelast Saturday of Aprilon waters in theLower Peninsula.

Indiana has noclosed season onmuskies. Anglers canfish for them year-round.

“Closed seasons areoften used to protectspawning fish. Ourmuskie programdepends entirely onstocking, so a closedseason in Indiana isnot needed,” Pearsonsaid.

WEST LAFAYETTE- As pastures start togreen up in the east-ern Corn Belt, cattleproducers need to beaware of the risk ofgrass tetany in graz-ing animals, a PurdueExtension beef spe-cialist says.

Grass tetany, orgrass staggers, is anutritional diseasethat cattle get fromgrasses high in watercontent and potassi-um and low in other

nutrients, such asmagnesium and calci-um. Older cows thathave just calved andare in peak lactationare the most suscepti-ble.

The risk increasesin pastures that havebeen heavily fertil-ized with nitrogen, sothose producers whohave spread fertiliz-ers such as poultry lit-ter, hog manure orurea are more at risk.

While the condition

Cattle producers should prevent, watch for grass tetanyis treatable if caughtearly enough, RonLemenager said it’sbest to prevent it alto-gether.

“The easiest way toprevent grass tetanyis to start these cowson a high magnesiummineral prior to goingto grass in thespring,” he said.“That mineral mixshould have a mini-mum of 8 percentmagnesium, and itcould be 12 percent orhigher.”

The problem with ahigh magnesium sup-plement is that thesource is typicallymagnesium oxide,which isn’t somethingcattle like to eat.

“What we’ll see isthat a lot of commer-cial mineral mixescontaining magne-sium will include apalatability enhancer- something like drieddistillers grains, soy-bean hulls, wheatmidds or driedmolasses - to helpencourage consump-

tion,” Lemenagersaid. “We’re lookingat, typically, 4 ouncesof mineral consump-tion to get adequatelevels of magnesiumwhen it’s included inthe supplement at 8 to12 percent.”

The peak season forgrass tetany is Aprilthrough early May, so

now is the time tokeep an eye on graz-ing animals. If a cowis stricken with grasstetany, the cattle pro-ducer doesn’t havelong to respond.Often, cows will diewithin 2-3 hours ofthe first symptoms.

Those symptomsinclude stumbling

and staggering, trem-bling muscles, muscletwitches, excitability,stiff gait, grindingteeth and eventuallyviolent convulsions,coma and death.

“The treatment isan IV administrationof magnesium anddextrose, which isprobably going to

require veterinariani n t e r v e n t i o n , ”Lemenager said. “Soif you see one of thosecows that’s acting alittle funny, it’s proba-bly time to call the vetand get this cow treat-ed. If you wait, thenext time you see thatcow, she’ll probablybe dead.”

As the snow meltsand spring rainsbring fresh flowers,green grass, andwarmer weather, theAmerican Red Crossencourages area resi-dents to be a part ofchange, too.

Spring is aboutrejuvenation andresearch studies showthat the increase intemperature is amajor mood booster.“The need for blood

remains constant,especially as theweather becomeswarmer,” said TracyDuncan Fox,spokesperson for theAmerican Red CrossIndiana-Ohio BloodServices Region. “Asingle blood donationcan save more thanone life, so as the sea-son changes, allowsome change withinyourself by gettinginto the habit of

donating blood.” While spring lasts

for a few months,donating blood onlytakes a fraction ofthat time; the dona-tion process onlytakes about one hour.A healthy donor candonate red blood cellsevery 56 days andplatelets can be givenevery 7 days, but nomore than 24 times inone year. According toFox, each and every

day, the Indiana-OhioBlood ServicesRegion needs to haveat least 500 blooddonors to help meetthe need of patientsin the hospitals weserve.

“Strong donorturnout in April andMay can give us goodmomentum into sum-mer. And with onlyeight percent of eligi-ble individuals donat-ing blood each year,

This April, be a part of the change happening around you there’s great potentialfor solid collectionsduring spring,” com-mented Fox.Approximately 38 per-cent of the U.S. popu-lation is eligible todonate blood. Butonly eight percent ofthose eligible – orthree percent of thegeneral population –

donates blood eachyear.

Every day, patientsacross the U.S. needan average of 44,000units of red bloodcells. That’s about 16-million donationstransfused to 5 mil-lion patients eachyear.

U p c o m i n g
