So I have this friend named Eli Whitney who made this amazing machine. It's called the cotton gin. It basically removes the seeds from cotton. Before he thought of making this, people had to pick it out themselves, which was a very hard and long job. It has a wooden drum stick with hooks that pull the cotton fiber through. Eli can clean up to 55lbs of cotton in one day! This machine works so good. It allows a hard job to get done rather quickly.
I wish I could of invented this machine. So many people use it now. Everybody is talking about this machine will change the world. The idea of making a machine to help clean cotton is a great idea. I think that everybody can use this machine to help with the cotton picking. I would hate to sit there and have to pick out the cotton fibers. Eli made a really great invention. It is complex, but gets a simple job done quickly.
