I can suggest several potential sources of old farm photos:

-Library of Congress American Memories Collection Web page:
http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/mdbquery.html

It includes photographs from the Dust Bowl of the 1930s and a variety of
other farm-related topics.

-Also, if I recall correctly, some graphic images taken by the photographs
taken by photographers working for the Farm Security Agency are available
somewhere on the Web. I cannot find the URL, however. A large collection of
the real negatives of these FSA photos is still maintained somewhere in the
U.S.. I do not have the location in mind, but I could refer you to someone
who would know if it is important.

-Another potential source is:
http://www.yahoo.com/Art/Photography/Exhibits/

-I also recall seeing that back issues of National Geographic are available
on CD-ROM.

-Finally, Texas A&M has a clip-art collection on the Web:
