As the National 4-H History Preservation team continues on the quest
to research, document and preserve relevant 4-H history... particularly
from the national level, we often find that there are known articles that
don't appear in our archives or repositories. One of our missions is to
make this history accessible to the general public through our 4-H history
preservation website.
These "missing" books, manuals or artifacts will be listed in this
section with the hopes that someone may wish to either loan the item to us
for digitization, or give us the item which will be digitized and then
placed in one of the national repositories.
If you know the location of any of the following items, please let us
know by writing:
Info@4-HHistoryPreservation.com
Thank you.

Mu Beta Beta - Any information on the national 4-H fraternity known as "Mu Beta Beta," the name being taken from the club motto, "Make the Best Better." Believed to have been started in colleges in the northwestern states, particularly Washington and Idaho, the purpose of the collegiate fraternity was "to promote and further club work among farm boys and girls, to promote fellowship among fraternity members and to interest club members in higher education." Mention of this national fraternity comes from a 1924 issue of National Boys' and Girls' Club News.
