Oxsfer Season Osens.

The oyster season In Florida opened this morning and with its inception more than dozen oyster luggers reached port from Escamb:a and Black. water Bays with large cargoes of oys- ters.
 The oyster fishermen report that they are more plentiful this season thar ever before. which Is prooably due to the fact that for the past two years there has been a strict enforcement of the game and fish laws, and small oys- ters are thus protected.
 About fifty boats are now out engag- ed in the business. and with oysters plentiful. the price of the bivalves should be considerably lower. accord ing to wholesalers. than last year, when they reached the top price.
