E, VALLEY PLENTIFUL When the China ' pheasant season opens Thursday; October 15, local hunters will not find so much game as in former years, according to local game officials, who state that the 'birds are tor some reason lacking. The scarcity has not- been attributed to any one cause. Quails,- the open season of which starts the same day, are said to be abounding in plentiful numbers In various parts of the valley. Many hunters who received the Im pression- that the season opened October 10 are said to bave killed a few pheasants alreudy,Oame "Warden however are- watching tbe situation very carefully. " Hunters are warned not to shoot the Hungarian partridges, which were liberated; sometime ago near Jackson ville. There Is no open season on the birds, as efforts Are- being made to have them Increase In numbers. Very few ducks have been killed so far locally. Several are reported- to have been shot near Ray dam on Rogue riven and other along Bear creek between - Medford and Asblaud. The ducks bagged at Ray dam- were shot on the opening day of the season. "Fishing, said William Coleman, local Btute game - official, 1 "has InV- proved and is improving in Rogue river. Several good catches of trout nnd young steelhead were- made last Sunday. A few young salmon were alBO caught." . He added that deer hunting as a whole was very good this year.

On the contrary, their estab-' lislnncnt dates back only a few hundred years. In England, early in the twelfth century, peddlers traveled from hamlet to hamlet with packs of fine cloth, jewels, wine, salt, spices, tallow and wax. - "The immediate forerunner of the grocer was the 'pepperer' or 'spieer,' whose trade had become well established in London prior to 1180. These tradesmen dealt in pepper, cloves, nutmeg, jnace.-ginger and other spices, painfully transported from remote India. ' ' "The eaj-liest use of the "word 'grocer' occurs in 1310 in the city records of London. The term probably originated through certain medieyal traders who 'engrossed' or attempted monopoly by the purchase of large quantities of merchandise. It has also been attributed to the leading merchants of the time, who bought . only in 'gross lots' or in large quantities. . ,A . ., . "The introduction into England, about 1G50, of tea, coffee and chocolate resulted in a great impetus to the grocer's business. The demand for tea, and later for coffee, increased with remark able' rapidity, and in' a few years in spite of the denunciation; with Avhich they were first greeted by both doctors and clergy they became, with sugar and spices, the chief staples of the trade. ' Since then the grocers' field has steadily widened and developed. "A recent estimate places the" number of grocery stores in the United States at more than 220,000; The grocer, anciently a pur veyor to the rich alone, lias expanded into the broader dignity of dispenser to all classes, and has become an important distributor of the necessities as well as the luxuries of life."
