Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Indiana

We live in Iowa. My mother in law owns a quarter section of land that includes an acreage. Her will states that one son inherits the south half and the other the north half with no mention about the acreage. Does that mean that whichever 1/2 has the acreage physically in it gets the acreage?
