VILLA LEADING A8MY0F2W UPON SALTILLO Mobilization of Troops Closes and March Begun Upon Federal Strong holdPica for Ammunition Made by Rebel General Wants Enough to Take Capital. TOMtEOX, Mm., May 1-i. Moti ilixntion of constitutionalist troop for the cnmimii;n against Saltillo onmo to n close Inst night when the Intl int left Torroon accompanied by General Villa nnd staff. This concentration hn brought together nn nrmy of 125,000 men to tet tho strength of the federal stronghold. "To establish constitutionalist gov ernment throughout Mexico, we need ammunition more ammunition than we now hnye, nqdjhnm willing-, that the government of the United States shall Rupcrvic Uicmporjqjion qfit.' uniil Villa in commenting upon new. paer rcorts purporting to indicate that President Wilson and other would be glad to aco the constitution nlista take Mexico City and end the present Elate of unrest in Mexico. Toccl Ammunition "How can we take Mexico Citv if wo have no ammunition!" asked Villa. "We nrot get ammunition somewhere after the fighting at Sal tillo, ns our supply then wilt be de pleted. "Of course the United States gov ernment must keep iu mind the jms sihility that someone might provoke war between the two countries. It would be injudicious, to Hay the least, under such conditions, to per mit tho unlimited importation of am munition into a country with which buttle might have to be fought For sjx days trains have been tak ing soldiers', horses and equipment to Fomo points on the. lino between Tor reon nud Monterey, the exnet point of dctruimnent being unknown. Strict secrecy regarding bin plans has been maintained by General Villa. 'Nothing is known beyond the sj.i hilily tluil Las lioens, north of Sal. tillo, will be the base of operation" ngniusi Hint town, and that many troops have left the cars at Nipolita. Many Machine Guns Tho army which Qencrn! Villa will lend ngainhl Saltillo conits of 1.5,000 cavalry, 7f00 infantry and U.)00 artillery. The Lamer branch-of the service is equipped with forty seven field guns and sixty-five ma chine gun. FINEST CONCRETE ROAD (Continued trom l.J does not sot and harden ai rapidly as many people seem to think. KHtiiiK IteacUoa When concrete Is first poured and placed, tbo water used In Its railing Is simply mechanically held within the mass, and tho setting reaction docs not start off with sufficient rap idity to utilize all of this required water at once, but after a few hours time, it does need all of the water originally given to it, so it leakage of any part of the original mixing water has taken place within theso fow hours, cither by excessive ova poratlon from the surface or by leak age through tho sub-base, tho con crato has been permanently injured, for it Is impossible to give it back Its lost water which will re-act In uxuctly tho same manner as ttie origi nal mixing water did. Heferrlng to tho Medford-Central Point work, It might be Interesting to know just what materials wo are using and In what proportions they ore used to glvo ua tho best results iu this particular case. l'icllinlniiry Testa Made A largo number of preliminary tobtu on tho cement, sand flue and course crushed granite and crn-hed gravel wero made. I)y tho carofu and blanilhnl method in uho In our laboratories tho separation and tho ulzlng of the different pnrtlclos In thousand and the eourso aggregate Mere determined. Largo and ropro bu'ntutlve samples wero taken for this purpose.

Tho greatest possible density or weight which enn bo secured from theo ma terials would give tue concrete a weight of approximately 172 pounds per cubic foot. Many or these cylin ders which have been trtcd have hhown a weight a hlRh as 1G5 pounds per cubic foot. Cement Harder Than Hock As a general rule, concrete made from suitable materials Is consid ered excellent If It weighs 153 pounds per cubic foot. Many of tho test cylinders so taken hare shown a compressive strength of 3S00 pounds per squaro Inch. One of tliese cy linders broken last week withstood a weight of 100,000 pouniUJjcfore It was crushed. In cruihlnrThcsb cy linders, the concrete Is so denso and hard and binds the rock so tightly, that many pieces of rock are broken In two, as the cylinders are tested. Kor our surface mixtures, after numerous experiments to secure a mixture which would have the great est strength, as well ns the greatest non-nbraslve qualities, wo finally standardised on a mixture of one part cement to two parts of the Hay Gold fine crushed granite. Thts mixture with this material gives ns a surface the equal of which 1 have never seen In a concrete pavement before. The texture Is what Is known as the "granitoid" surface and such a sur face made with the materials which we have at Med ford should wear uni formly and to all Intents and purposes should furnish a permanent wearing surface I'so of Hydrated IJme Many of the people who have been watching this work on the Central Point road have inquired, why we are using hydrated lime In wo concrete. V are using this material called hy drated llmo both In the at and wearing aurfaco for several Import ant reasons. Tho most Important of which aro as follews: Hydrated lime enables us to se cure an extremely dense and uniform concrete. It also water proofs tne concrete, and prevents the alternate absorption of water and drying out process which Is the source of later cracking In concreto In most con crete pavements. Hydrated llmo alto Increases to a marked degree the au- hcslon or sticking qualities of tho ce ment and sand mortar to the coarse crushed rock. In our compression (pits of the concrete already placed on the Medford-Central I'olnt road. wo have noticed this extreme adhe sion of tho mortar to tho crushed rock to a marked degreo. Finally, hydrated llmo being a product which combines with and holds a large amount of water when mixed Into Dip concrete gives us a ready means of keeping more moisture within tho concreto mats during tho first few houra that the concrete pavement Is placed. Host Itoail Yet Uullt The writer was In your city en tho 12th Inst, and made a careful Inspec tion of the concrete pavement already placed on tho Medford-Central Point road, and It Is his opinion that If tho rest of this road Is as good as tho Hrst section aleady placed, Jackson county will have one of the best pieces of concrete road yet placed In tne United States. The concrete In this road should furnish a pavement which will need but very little at toniinn nnd maintenance for many years to come, and 1 feel confident that tho Initial work done by Jack son county In the building of con creto roads will stand as an example of which the people In Jackson coun ty should be proud.

Const nlile liaiikin Kstes returned this morning from Montague, whither he went with a warrant for Hoystone. and it turned with the money, instead. Tho Hoy. tone's proceeded to Los An geles, whore they have relatives. A clerk at the Medford hold cash ed the Hoystone check nnd later it was discovered l be n forgery. A telegram was sent to Montague to arret I?oytone. The sheriff did. This was the first the faithful wife knew all ws not right. She pleaded with the sheriff, who took her dia mond ns security, ami ndvauccd the .10", for he was n very tender hearted sheriff. The cash being re turned, the law is npiH'ii-ed, and there will be no prosecution. Koystone lived iu Medford several mouths mill was well known. He claimed to have rich relatives iu Los Angeles.
