The Cotton Gin invented by Eli Whitney. The Cotton Gin removed seeds from cotton, which made Cotton, (which has a lot of seeds in it), a very valuable product. Before the Cotton Gin, it took a long time to remove seeds from cotton, with the C. G., the removal seeds took a short time, and the cotton could be used for clothing and other products.
