Sales rose 7 to $457.4 million, Carnation's stock is one 5 of about 7 of the Ameri-Scan Stock Exchange's approximately 1,250 issues that have unlisted trading rights. This privilege is 'granted to companies i whose securities were traded on the old New i York Curb Market before the passage of the Securi- ties and Exchange Act of 1 1933. The law required the Curb, as the Amex was Tthen called, to establish "stiffer listing and report- ing requirements for com-' panies. Any new issues listed on the exchange must conform to these requirements.

Among the other com-! panies with unlisted trad- ing rights on the Ameri-! can exchange are Rolls Royce the British car I and aircraft engine maker; George A. Hormel i the Austin, meat i packer, and Prentice-Hall Englewood Cliffs, N.J., publisher. I What areas of the Carls nation operation are lead ing its growth? The company won't tell. But one thing is certain: the gains aren't coming from its traditional product, canned evaporated milk. "We're holding our market share," notes C.

G. Todd, senior vice president and treasurer. But he discloses that the U.S. market is slipping about 3 to 6 a year in terms of unit sales, and that Carnation is experiencing a similar decline. Another of the company' markets generally considered weak is that for fresh, bottled milk and milk products.

Todd con- by Leo Miller, President The stock market isn't the only source for hot "new issues." Furniture factories are constantly issuing new styles, new colors, new dimensions for making business environments more pleasurable and profitable. Being the big company in business interiors, Miller cashes in on most new issues in office furnishings; certainly the worthwhile ones. Make sure you don't miss any of the hot ones by seeing all that's new Miller's. Miller does the big job in business interiors, because it's the big company.

in downtown Los Angeles. MILLER DESK "cooked before canning" process. The process permits more even cooking of foods in large-sized can3 than is possible under the usual "closed-can retort" method, Todd says. The usual method, in which the can is first sealed and then the food inside it cooked in a "retort," or pressure cooker, works well enough for smaller cans. But in the large cans bought by institutions, this method frequently results in uneven cooking of the contents, leaving the edges overcooked.

The Carnation process cooks the food before it reaches the cans and uses a special technique to eliminate unpleasant cooking odors. Carnation makes more than 85 of its own cans and sells more than 35 of its can production to other packers. New Product Tested The company's grocery product sales have been helped by the success of Slender, a dry milk-additive for weight-watchers. However, a companion product, Bodybuild, for those who want to add weight, is still undergoing test marketing, Todd says. Problems at Carnation's 60-owned Brazilian subsidiary have been largely solved (the unit had recently been showing a loss) and in general the company's foreign operations have been showing an improved profit, Todd says.

He notes that the milk operation in the Philippines appears to be working out well. Perhaps the most exotic of Carnation's businesses is its growing activity in a i icial insemination, primarily for dairy cattle. Semen from the prize bulls at Carnation Farms, near Seattle, is sent around the country and abroad. Tourist Attraction The farms are something of a tourist attraction; they draw 20,000 to 30,000 visitors a year. In addition to cattle, they house the Carnation kennels, where the company breeds pedigreed dogs partly to promote its dog food.

The dog-breeding, while hardly profitable, has been succ essful nonetheless. Bingo, the Scottish terrier, was judged "best of show" over 2,500 other dogs at the prestigious Westminster Kennel Club meet in New York in 1967. The judge called him "the best we have had in years." actorir Sherwin L. Memel lias been elected vice chairman of the board and a director of American Me-dicorp Inc. W.

90004 41969, Miller Desk, Offer may he obtained Lease a ouigec from a 4o Convertible Subordinated Debentures, due 1993 and Common Stock Purchase Warrants of NATIONAL GENERAL CORPORATION National General Corporation is offering by its Prospectus to exchange its 4 Convertible Subordinated Debentures and Common Stock Purchase Warrants for any and all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Great American Holding Corporation tendered, subject to the terms and conditions specified in the Prospectus, in the ratio of $50 principal amount of Debentures plus V2 Warrants in exchange for each Share of Great American Holding Corporation common stock tendered. As described more fully In the Prospectus dated January 10, 19(59, the 4 Convertible Subordinated Debentures are due September 1, 1993, contain sinking fund provisions, are convertible into common stock of National General Corporation on the basis of a conversion price of $48.50 per common share, are redeemable after September 1, 1971 and are subordinate to Senior Indebtedness. The Warrants are exercisable prior to September 30, 1978 and each Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one share of common stock of National General Corporation at an exercise price of $40 per share. cedes this is a low profit, low growth field. But he notes that Carnation's par-; ticipation is solely west of I the Mississippi, and main- ly in areas where popula-i tion and hence demand for milk is growing faster than the national average.

One of the company's most attractive markets is the pet food field, where i industry sales are growing j' 9 to 11 a year. "We've i been keeping up with the industry," Todd says. In 1968, the company added an apparently successful I i new brand Buffet cat i food to its line of dry and canned dog and cat food. Todd says last year's second half brought some improvement to its egg, poultry and animal feed business. These operations have been depressed by i generally low commodity prices, particularly for 5 eggs, and still aren't at i optimum profit levels, he notes.
