Hoosier Perspectives: In this edition of Spotted … in Indiana: Where can you find this mural?
Dairy cows add zest to old brick building
NAME THE TOWN: Identify the town where you can see this mural and earn entry into a drawing for a gift card. Here’s a hint: The town is a county seat in Indiana. TOM J. BECHMAN

Hoosier Perspectives: In this edition of Spotted … in Indiana: Where can you find this mural?

Most people would likely paint a picture of dairy cows in a green pasture if given the opportunity to promote dairy in a mural. This artist was more creative, creating an eye-popping mural that didn’t escape our camera.

If you’ve been to the town where this mural resides, you’ve likely seen these upscale dairy cows. It’s one of at least two paintings on buildings in this county-seat town.

Identify the town and you can win a $25 gift card. A winner will be drawn from all correct entries. Send your guess to tom.bechman@farmprogress.com or mail to: 599 N., 100 W., Franklin, IN 46131. Please include your physical mailing address.

New icon

Based on the number of correct guesses for the facility featured in the October issue of Indiana Prairie Farmer, the Indiana Farm Bureau Fall Creek Pavilion will soon be an iconic location. It’s located on the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

Opened this year, it replaced the Swine Barn, first used in 1923. The new facility will be busy this winter and next spring hosting indoor track and field meets. Key sponsors include Indiana Farm Bureau Inc. and Indiana Farm Bureau Insurance.

Congratulations to Joette Webber, Kokomo, Ind., winner of the gift card drawing. Remember, send a horizontal, large-format digital photo of anything unique you spot in Indiana. If used in the column, we will send you a gift card.

Milksolids per cow are once again near record levels, says DairyNZ.
