New York, Oct. Prof. Herschel c. Parker, the man who invented the diminutive submarinne, with which Henry Ford's name has been connect cd, is willing to offer his idea to the United States government. in let ter written to MT. Ford, Prof. Parker suggests that he and MT. Ford CO., operate on the idea and build sub marine for trial in Long Island sound.
 Prof. Parker said that he submit ted the submarine idea to MT. Fofd some time ago because he felt that the automobile man was the one to eGuip the motor with propellln2 power that will give it speed ot oO miles an hour.
 The submarine is to carry but one torpedo and two men.
 According to Prof. Parker It Will be possible to build 1000 of these tiny submarines for the cost of one moo- ern dreadnaught.
 Prof. Parker is the man who "showed up" Dr. Cook and climbed Mt. Mckinley.

 ! COST. 0F STATE ROADS.

Y. The cost. of 9 road is, dependent upon not only the type of cohsfruc- tion but the amount and character of grading to be done, the cost of labor and materials, the width and thick ness of surfacing, the character and amount of drainage required, and other factors of equal variability
 Based upon general averages, it has
 been ascertained by highway special
 ists of United States department that under average conditions macadam
 at from S4,O00 to $5,O00 per mile,
 gravel roads at from $500 to $2,500 per mile, and sand-clay and topsoil
 roads at from $500 to $1, 300 per mile.
 In New England and the other East ern states macadam roads are report ed at from S6,000 to $9,000 per mile, gravel roads at from S3,2OO to $5,OO0, and bituminOus macadam from SS,000 to $S,000 to $13,000, according to the character of construction, whether
 surface~treated, penetration, or mix | ing method. The bituminous type is
 quite general in the Eastern states.
 As indicating costs in other sections
 of the country, the state highway
 commissioner of Michigan reported ill | 1913 the average cost for mRcadam roads to be $4,S0o per mile, clay gravel roads $1,500 per mile, and
 concrete roads about $10,00O per mile. The average cost of state highways Iconstructed in Ohio in 1918 was $S,- | 3SS. According to types, in 1912 the
 brick-paved highways averaged $14,- $50 per mile and the macadam high ways $5,950. Tn California the first
 S56 miles of the state system of high | ways cost an average of $S,l43 per mile and consisted principally of thin concrete with thin coat of bitumen.
 The maximum and minimum figures given are not absolute, but are in- tended to present the usual range of | costs. The rate given include grad ing, drainage, surtaclng, and engi-
 neering costs.
