Tallahassee, May 2S.-Lake Hatch
ineha, body of water about ten miles
in length with an area of approximate
ly fifteen square miles, teeming with
fish and yet known only to a few hun
dred cattlemen and fishermen, is the
bone of contention in a row between
Polk and Osceola counties with both
claiming possession.
Investigating the boundaries of
Polk county recently John j. Swear
ingen of Boston discovered that the
eastern line ran along the west side
of the Kissimmee river at the south
east corner of Polk instead of in the
center of the stream as does the Os-
ceola line. He suggested to Represen-
tative Keen that this should be
changed and Keen pursuing the mat
ter discovered there was a gap of
nearly ten miles further north where
the river runs out of Lake Kissim-
NEE. 1t jumps Lake Hatchineha en-.
tirely, striking the ground again at
Lake Cypress. Hatchineha extends
west from the river directly into Polk
county. Mr.. Keen. for Polk, insists
that the line should follow the center

Hatchineha always has been regard

see it in the county Mr.. Keen's bill
making it certain that it is in Polk
has passed the house and now is in
the Senate where Senator Overstreet
representing Osceola county has been
holding it up until his constituents
are satisfied. In the meantime Mr.
Keen says Osceola shall not have

prevent it. He declares it a part OF
Polk, has been for years. and will
remain so

Quick, clean heat
for every kind of cooking

TT is hard to appreciate the
i convenience and satisfaction
Of cooking with the New Per-
fection until you have actually
done SO.
It's a relief, especially in warm
weather, to be rid of carrying
coal, wood and ashes, sweep
ing up litter and blacking the
stove. And then you don't
have to "rush the fire" on
baking days and heat up the
kitchen. Two burners on the
New Perfection will give you
all the heat needed for any
kind of baking. You can regu>
late the heat produced by each
burner, warm something gently
on one and roast over another
in a New Perfection oven.
