by General Villa nnd staff. This

"To establish constitutionalist gov

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

Fomo points on the. lino between Tor

of dctruimnent being unknown.
Strict secrecy regarding bin plans
has been maintained by General Villa.
'Nothing is known beyond the sj.i

troops have left the cars at Nipolita.
Many Machine Guns
Tho army which Qencrn! Villa will

1.5,000 cavalry, 7f00 infantry and
U.)00 artillery. The Lamer branch-of
the service is equipped with forty

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

Mere determined. Largo and ropro
bu'ntutlve samples wero taken for this
purpose. Ily combining certain pro.
portions of theso materials, wo wero
ulilu to bQcuro nn oMrupiely well pro
portioned and n very cuuiko concrete
for tho bnvo mixture. Thin consists
of ono purl of cement, two parts Med.

a ronn of cylinder 12 Incite long
and six Inches In diameter. 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.
Yours truly,
HOUKItT S. EDWARDS.

with pnsxini n worthless cheek on
Kuril Mohr of tho Medrold hotel for

the disgrace of being returned to
Medford to face n criminal cliurse.
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

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

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
