Noe himself, who is ably assisted ill his work by his foreman, Allen Uoty THE uaiiic of Noe is sjuouyinously Identified with tlie growing pf rosos in the State of New Jersey. Mr, L. M. Noi' was bne of the pioneer growers and practically IntrcKluced the growing of American Beauties, and for many years was noted for the exceedingly fine quality of the flowers produced. Mr. Noe started the business some 45 years ago, couiinenc- Ing with one liouse 20' wide x 200' long. As the business other liouses were added, each liouse l>cing heated from a st'iiarate boiler. In the course of time. :>4 houses were built, each heated as a separate unit. You can imagine the prohlein which Mr. L. A. Noe, (known to his friends as ) liad to face In obtaining anthracite fuel of a size which he could burn In his small boilers ; but Lou Noe is a worthy son of his father, and took hold of the problem in a big way. He saw the proper tiling to do was to put in a central heating jilant, and heat all of his ;{(i houses from one central station. On request of Mr. Noe, we furnished him with a proposal, which on figuring the cost we were almost afraid to present, as at that time, the cost seeiiusl so much out of proportion to pre-war days, that it seemed almost foolish to ask any- one to see the reason for it. 'I'his matter, however, did not phase L. A. Noe, as he saw it was tlie logical thing to do. and when a wise business iiinii decides what is logical, he goes ahead and does it. irrespective of any and every obstacle. When you consider that the former 34 boilers are now re- placed by only 3, the numerous boiler cellars and chimneys now replaced by one, and alKwe all, that the cheapest grade of fuel which Is on the market can be burned under the new boilers, It can readily be seen that Mr. Noe made no mistake. Everyone knows the price
