ABEL’S TENDERMOST BANTAM—83 days. Tendermost, as 
the name implies, is an exception. It has the most tender hull 
of any variety or hybrid which we have so far observed. In 
addition, it has a high sugar content and a smooth, delight- 
ful flavor. The ears are about nine inches long and almost 
entirely 14 to 16 rowed. The variety maintains its exceptional 
tenderness over a period of nearly two weeks. It has shown 
a good degree of resistance to smut and is less damaged by 
ear worms than most fancy yellow corns.
