Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D relates to the Common Stock, par value $.10 per share, of Oil-Dri Corporation of America, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Oil-Dri’s principal executive offices are located at 410 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60611-4213. In accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D does not relate to the Class B Stock, par value $.10 per share (“Class B Stock”), of the Issuer because the Class B Stock is not registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; however, because the Class B Stock is convertible on a share for share basis into Common Stock at any time, at the option of the holder, and therefore represents a right to acquire Common Stock within 60 days, beneficial ownership of Class B Stock is shown in this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D in disclosing beneficial ownership of Common Stock. Each share of Class B Stock is entitled to 10 votes per share. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D also presents for each Reporting Person the total voting power of the shares of Common Stock and Class B Stock held by such Reporting Person.

This Schedule 13D was last amended by Amendment No. 5, filed on November 5, 2004. All of the share totals reported in the Amendment No. 6 reflect the five-for-four stock split effected by the Issuer on September 8, 2006.
 
Item 2. Identity and Background

(a)-(c) This Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D is being filed on behalf of (i) Jaffee Investment Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Jaffee Investment Partnership”), (ii) Richard M. Jaffee, (iii) Shirley H. Jaffee, (iv) Susan Jaffee Hardin, (v) Karen Jaffee Cofsky, (vi) Nancy E. Jaffee and (vii) Daniel S. Jaffee (the foregoing are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Reporting Persons”). The Reporting Persons who are natural persons are sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Individual Reporting Persons.” The filing of this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D shall not be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons comprise a group for purposes of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.

The principal business of the Jaffee Investment Partnership is investments, and its principal business address is c/o Oil-Dri Corporation of America, 410 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60611-4213. See Item 6 below.

Richard M. Jaffee serves as Chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, Daniel S. Jaffee serves as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Issuer, and Karen Jaffee Cofsky services as Vice President, Compensation and Benefits, of the Issuer. The Issuer is engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing sorbent mineral products, and its principal executive offices are located at 410 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60611-4213. No other Individual Reporting Person is presently engaged in any principal occupation or employment. The principal business address of each of the Individual Reporting Persons for purposes of this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D is c/o Oil-Dri Corporation of America, 410 North Michigan Avenue, Suite 400, Chicago, Illinois 60611-4213.

Page 9 of 50

(d) and (e) During the last five years, none of the Reporting Persons has been (i) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or funding any violation with respect to such laws.

(f) Each of the Individual Reporting Persons is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

No purchase of securities of the Issuer was involved in the transaction which necessitated the filing of this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D, except as described herein. Since the filing of Amendment No. 5 to this Schedule 13D, certain of the Individual Reporting Persons exercised stock options granted by the Issuer using personal funds, or a portion of the cash proceeds resulting from the immediate resale of the underlying Common Stock, to satisfy the aggregate exercise prices of those stock options. No funds were borrowed or otherwise obtained for the purpose of acquiring, holding, trading or voting shares of Common Stock or Class B Stock. In addition, on September 8, 2006, the Issuer effected a five-for-four stock split.
 
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The purpose of the transaction initially requiring filing of this Schedule 13D (on January 21, 1998) was to form the Jaffee Investment Partnership for estate planning purposes. This Schedule 13D, since its initial filing, has also reported on the individual ownership of the partners of the Jaffee Investment Partnership. The information set forth in Item 6 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 4. This Schedule 13D was last amended by Amendment No. 5, filed on November 5, 2004. This Amendment No. 6 is being filed to report changes in the beneficial ownership of Common Stock and Class B Stock and to reflect the five-for-four stock split effected by the Issuer on September 8, 2006.

Common Stock and Class B Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons are held for investment purposes. The Reporting Persons may acquire additional shares of Common Stock, Class B Stock or similar securities from time to time, either in privately-negotiated transactions, upon the exercise of stock options, warrants or similar securities or in the case of the Common Stock, in brokerage transactions on the New York Stock Exchange. Each of Daniel S. Jaffee and Karen Jaffee Cofsky holds stock options, restricted stock and/or other equity awards to acquire additional shares of Common Stock and/or Class B Stock granted to them as compensation for his or her service to the Issuer. Daniel S. Jaffee serves as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Issuer, and Karen Jaffee Cofsky serves as Vice President, Compensation and Benefits, of the Issuer. Such persons may, from time to time, exercise such options or be granted additional stock options or other equity awards by the Issuer in connection with such service. Any decision of a Reporting Person to increase its, his or her holdings of Common Stock or Class B Stock will depend on various factors, including but not limited to, the price of the shares of Common Stock, the terms and conditions of the transaction, prevailing market conditions and such other considerations as such Reporting Person deems relevant. In addition, the Jaffee Investment Partnership may acquire (or dispose of) beneficial ownership of shares of Class B Stock from time-to-time, subject to the terms and conditions of the Agreement (as defined in Item 6 below).

Page 10 of 50

Each Reporting Person also may, at any time, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, dispose of some or all of its, his or her Common Stock or Class B Stock depending on various factors, including but not limited to, the price of the shares, the terms and conditions of the transaction and prevailing market conditions, as well as liquidity and diversification of objectives. Each of the Reporting Persons may make gifts of shares to charities or others from time to time. In addition, each Reporting Person may, from time to time, enter into stock trading plans intended to satisfy the requirements of Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b5-1 (a “Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Daniel S. Jaffee adopted a Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan on March 23, 2004, as modified April 20, 2004, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. That plan expired on June 30, 2004. Mr. Jaffee entered into a similar plan on July 1, 2004 which expired March 31, 2008. There were no transactions in Issuer securities effected under either of these plans. Mr. Jaffee adopted a Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan on October 15, 2004, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 6 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. Such plan was subsequently terminated, as set forth in the letter dated October 21, 2004 attached hereto as Exhibit 7 and incorporated herein by reference. On January 8, 2007, Daniel S. Jaffee entered into Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 8 and incorporated herein by reference. As of the date hereof, all of the transactions contemplated by this Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan have been consummated.

On October 30, 2007, Thomas F. Cofsky, Vice President, Manufacturing and Logistics, of the Issuer, entered into a Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 9 and incorporated herein by reference. Such plan provides that Mr. Cofsky will, subject to the terms and conditions of the plan, exercise employee stock options to purchase up to 25,000 shares of Class B Stock between November 10, 2007 and December 31, 2009, if the price of Common Stock reaches various limits as stated in the plan. The shares of Class B Stock acquired upon option exercise pursuant to the plan will be converted to Common Stock and sold and a portion of the sale proceeds used to pay the option exercise price and Mr. Cofsky’s tax obligation. Karen Jaffee Cofsky, an Individual Reporting Person and Mr. Cofsky’s spouse, shares with him beneficial ownership of the shares of Common Stock covered by this Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan. To date, Mr. Cofsky has exercised and sold 9,375 shares of Common Stock pursuant to such plan. Previously, Mr. Cofsky adopted a Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plan on March 23, 2004, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 5 and incorporated herein by reference. The possible sales period under that plan ended on March 31, 2005.

Page 11 of 50

On May 14, 2007, Daniel S. Jaffee, in his capacity as trustee of the Richard M. Jaffee Annuity Trust, made a gift of 278 shares of Class B Stock to the Richard M. Jaffee Revocable Trust, a trust of which Richard M. Jaffee is trustee; and on that same date, in his capacity as trustee of the Shirley H. Jaffee Annuity Trust, he made a gift of 293 shares of Class B Stock to the Shirley H. Jaffee Declaration Trust, a trust of which Shirley H. Jaffee is trustee.

The Reporting Persons intend to participate in and influence the affairs of the Issuer through the exercise of their voting rights with respect to their shares of Common Stock and Class B Stock. In addition, Richard M. Jaffee serves as Chairman of the Issuer’s Board of Directors, Daniel S. Jaffee serves as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Issuer, and Karen Jaffee Cofsky serves as Vice President, Compensation and Benefits, of the Issuer and, as a result, in the ordinary course or otherwise, may take actions to influence the management, business and affairs of the Issuer.

Except as indicated herein, no Reporting Person, as a stockholder of the Issuer, has any plan or proposal that related to or would result in any of the transactions or other matters specified in clauses (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Each Reporting Person may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider its, his or her position and/or change its, his or her purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of Messrs. Richard M. Jaffee and Daniel S. Jaffee and Ms. Karen Jaffee Cofsky, in their respective capacities as an officer and/or director of the Issuer, intend to consider such matters and take such actions as he or she deems to be in the best interests of the Issuer, which matters and actions could potentially from time to time involve items referenced in the first sentence of this paragraph.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The Limited Partnership Agreement of the Jaffee Investment Partnership, L.P., as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto (as amended, the “Agreement”) provides that, subject to the limitations of the Agreement, the General Partners manage the partnership business, with all rights and powers of general partners as provided in the Delaware Revised Uniform Partnership Act. It further provides that certain decisions (distributions to Partners, sale, assignment or mortgage of, grant of security interest in, or pledge of, a Partnership Interest, borrowing, or lending, or purchasing of any security) cannot be made and, unless otherwise specifically provided in the Agreement, other decisions and acts cannot be taken, unless approved by a majority of the Units held by General Partners; no General Partner holds more than three of the outstanding ten Units. It grants the power and authority over day-to-day decisions to Richard M. Jaffee as Managing General Partner. (Day-to-day decisions include the investment and reinvestment of Partnership assets in any property, including stock of any corporation, and execution of any documents deemed by the Managing General Partner to be necessary for the Partnership to conduct its business.) The Agreement is not clear as to whether Richard M. Jaffee, as the Managing General Partner, has the power to unilaterally dispose of or vote Issuer securities held by the Partnership, and as to whether, if he has such power, it can be overridden by action of the General Partners by a majority of the Units. Accordingly, based on consultation with counsel, Mr. Jaffee acknowledges the possibility, for purposes of Regulation 13D, that he could be deemed to beneficially own, but disclaims ownership of, the Partnership’s 1,250,000 shares of Class B Stock (and the 1,250,000 shares of Common Stock into which such Class B Stock is convertible), which would be in addition to the Class B Stock and Common Stock otherwise shown herein as owned by him. The foregoing summary of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Jaffee Investment Partnership Agreement and Amendment No. 1 thereto, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 2 and 3 to this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D and are incorporated herein by reference.

The information regarding Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plans set forth in Item 4 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 6.
Other than as described herein, in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 6 to this Schedule 13D, and in the exhibits hereto (including the joint filing agreement, Rule 10b5-1 Sales Plans and related correspondence), there are no contracts, arrangements or understandings among the Reporting Persons or between any of the Reporting Persons and any other person with respect to any securities of the Issuer, including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, and the Reporting Persons have not pledged securities of the Issuer nor are the securities of the Issuer held by the Reporting Persons subject to a contingency, the occurrence of which would give another person voting power or investment power over such securities.
