The answer is here:
  cmake --help-module FindBoost

You need to add, before the add_executable(...):

find_package( Boost REQUIRED thread date_time )
# Note that you can add other boost components

target_link_libraries(local_exe ${Boost_LIBRARIES})

It seems CMake has a module to help the detection and use of the Fortran 
C API. Have a look at the documentation of the module FortranCInterface:

   cmake --help-module FortranCInterface

I hope you will manage to use that module, because I do not know Fortran and 
I 
cannot well understand the documentation of that CMake module.
