ERICKSON At POST
AS SCOUT LEADER
Successor to Walter 0. Cook
Takes Up Duties

Oscar A. Erickson took over his
duties as executive of the New Brit
ain Boy Scout council yesterday, sue
ceeding Walter o. Cook, who resign
ed 10 accept a similar position in
New Bedford. Mass. The new execu-
tive has been connected with scout
ing for the past IL years, during
eight of which he has served the
movement in a professional capacity.
He was born in Worcester, Mass,
and was educated at the high school
in that city and at Phillips Exeter
academy. He then became affiliated
with the Boston Y. NJ. c. A. During
service with a machine gun unit but
did not go across" After the arm
istice, he took UP scouting in a pro-
fessional Way. In 1914 he had as
sumed the post OF scoutmaSter of
the first troop in SomerNlle, Mass,
so he was no new hand at the game,
and he became connected with the
Boston regional office as a deputy
executive. organizing new councils
and conducting financial campaigns.
He was appointed scout executive
in Brockton. Mass, and then went
to Manchester, n. H.. from where he
came to New Britain. While at Man
chester the council was given a 100
acre site in the mountains. and Mr..
Erickson developed this into one OF
the best scout camps in New Eng
land. Building up camps has been a
notable feature of his work, and this
is expected to be of great value when
the local council leases a new site.
Mr.. Erickson is married.
The new executive is much inter-
ested in the merit badge program,
believing it one of the most valuable
phases of scouting. In many cases,
he says, it has helped boys to find
their life vocation.
Last night Mr.. Erickson and Com
missioner Charles E. Morgan visited
those troops which were holding
their meetings, while he has met
many Of the boys and officials at
his office yesterday and today. The
first project which he will handle
will be the transporting of the local
scouts to the Yale-Brown football
game in New Haven next Saturday
afternoon.

House wives everywhere are calling
for more milk and the cows are nobly
responding to the emergency.
The consumption OF milk in all of
its forms has increased about rs per
cent. in the past seven years. One
hundred and fourteen billion pounds
Of milk-either as milk or milk prod
ucts-were consumed in the United
States In 1924 as compared with
eighty-six billion pounds in 1918. This
means an increased consumption of
twenty eight billion pounds of milk,
the production of which would require
six and one-half million OF our aver
age dairy cows, In the same period,
however, the number of COWS in the
United States only increased a little
more than two million. Increased
consumption In the seven-year period
was greater by three times than the
increase in the number of cows, in
dicating that the cows are showing
greater efficiency,
The dairy industry in the United
States Is the greatest and most vital
single industry in the world The
value Of dairy products last year, &C
cording to Charles w. Larson, chief
of the Bureau of Dairy Industry of the
U. S. Department of Agriculture in
an address before the Kiwanis Club
of Washington recently, amounted to
$500, OOO,0 900
But the importance of the industry
is not so much in it's size or in the
amount of money derived from it as
is its Importance to the health Of the
people. The position that dairy prod
ucts hold in the nourishment of the
people of this country is indicated by
a survey made by the u S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture of the diet of the
average family in this country. An
analysis Of the results of this survey
shows that more than one fifth of the
money spent for food was used for
dairy products with about two,thirds
OF this Ount for milk end one-third
for butter Other dairy products take
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1926-09-03

relatively small place in the total
costs of food for the family.
OF course the very life of the dairy
industry is dependent upon efficient
distribution, and the two most i'm
portant factors Of this are Transports
ton and communication. Nothing has
done more to bring about the in
creased production in the marketing
Of dairy products than improved roads
and the telephone. The good road
system Of every community have made
1t possible for the dairyman to trans
port his produce to the community
more quickly and efficiently than in
the past. With the telephone he is
able to keep in touch with his pa
irons and supply on demand the prod
ucts required, or in case he is unable
to furnish a sufficient quantity, he
can get in touch with other dairymen
in his community who will be able TO
make up the quantity required.
The telephone in the dairy industry
is necessary as in every other bust
ness. 1t is an important link in the
communication system of every com
munity. The dairyman not only de
ponds on the telephone to sell his
produce, but uses 1t daily in ordering
supplies for the dairy farm and in
the repairs and upkeep of his plant.
Where fleets of motor trucks are used
to distribute milk and anything goes
wrong with the mechanical apparatus
a telephone is used as a dispatching
system to straighten out the emer-
gency and provide the necessary
equipment to keep the consignment
moving so that it may be delivered to
the consumer in time for his morning
meal
The modern home of today is not
complete without telephone service.
The housewife uses it in innumbera-
BILE ways not only to supply the wants
Of the larder but in her social affairs
as well. With the younger members
of the family it is used with equal
fidelity to make dates and break
dates, depending on the occasion.
