The younger one holds DEP, being taken over by EPD.

Hi Ernest ..

I think the Mergent's Dividend Achievers List, which
is published quarterly, is a good place to start ..

Any good library should carry it ..

Ernie, you could consider HAS (Hasbro). It was recently reco'd by a newsletter I subscribe to. Though the initial yield is low (~2.1%) they think it will grow quickly - in fact HAS recently raised the dividend by 20%. The combination of fast div growth and a product a child could relate to might be of interest.

My 19 year old daughter's account consists of:

D - yld 4.2% ... 5 yr Dividend Growth Rate 6.7%
EPD - yld 5.5% ... 5 yr DGR 6.4%

MCD - yld 3.2% ... 5 yr DGR 32.1% (I expect this to lower in the 9% to 10% range going forward.)

MO - yld 5.9% ... (MO is showing a negative DGR of -11%, but that is due to the PM spinoff. The recent dividend increase was 8.5%.)

O - yld 4.9% ... 5 yr DGR 4.8%
PG - yld 3.1% ... 5 yr DGR 11.4%
