Have you ever seen a stalk of cotton? There are many seeds in cotton fibers, and until Eli Whitney came along, workers had to remove those seeds by COLORING PICTURE hand, which took many hours. Whitney invented the cotton gin to remove the seeds from cotton fibers in the late 1790s. Although the machine was a success, it did not make Whitney rich. Many farmers did not want to pay Whitney to separate their cotton and made cotton gins of their own. Whitney invented many other things, including a way to make muskets by machine. It was his work in manufacturing where he made most of his money.
