For many years an avid gatherer of unusual dog facts, sta- tistical data, exploits of individual dogs, facts about the various dog breeds, and the like, Mr. Miller, who heads up the Gaines Dog Research Center in New York City, makes use of this data in “DOG ODDITIES” as a means of furthering a better understand- ing of dogs everywhere. The “boc oppitirs” sketches, based whenever possible on actual photographs, are the work of a prominent illustrator of animal subjects. This booklet is presented to you as a memento of Gaines’ three-in-one anniversary in 1953 — 25 years in the dog food business, 10 years as a member of the General Foods group and 5 years as a separate General Foods Division located in Kanka- kee, Illinois — with the thought that it will prove entertaining and instructive to your family and friends. 12 MATURITY a AMERICAS RECORD LITTER, 23 PUPPIES Propuceo py GIE(A, welsh FOXHOUND, OWNED BY W.
