You can meet Jeez at O'Riordan's (before fighting any ants) and if you buy him a soda, he will tell you that he finds the samples SW of the Quarry. For some reason, you won't find Jeez every time, especially if you have fought ants previously (look below) so you must visit the pub before you go to the farm or the volcano.

There are two known ant attacks today, and you can intercept them to get evidence of the ants; both a leg and some fluid.  They are at the SW Volcanic Cone (which the donkey refuses to approach), and J.D.'s farm (where there is a mutilated cow). If you are quick enough, you can bring them to Dr. Wells before 6 PM, and the results will be ready tomorrow; if not, you can visit him the other day.

At 8:00 AM, Jackie will arrive at your door asking for help.  You can go with Jackie to investigate the crash scene to collect evidence of the ants, as well as to fight off an ant patrol.

On the main street, you may find a watchman who will mention the strange noises around the pump house. If you go there (to the far north of the map), someone will tell you that they uncovered an Indian cemetery and a dog was barking at something.
