In our feature segment today, a Farmweek Flashback from seven years ago. Harris Barnes of Clarksdale, Mississippi, spent more than 50-years as a farmer and an agricultural photojournalist. In 2002, he published his first Book, "Cotton, A 50-year Pictorial History," Sadly, Barnes passed away at the age of 87, a little more than three-years after this story first aired. He actually published two more books before he died. We'll update you on how to get copies of the books at the end of story. Farmweek's Brian Utley reports. Reporter: Brian Utley.  (original broadcast August 19, 2003)
