Greene's planta tion, all the more welcome when he discovered that his prospective employer had hired another man in his place, brought him into contact with the cotton aristocracy of the neighborhood. Handy Man Whitney soon endeared him self to his hostess by his extra ordinary "handiness." There was nothing that this big, ram bling man with the extraordi narily deft fingers jcould not make of mend. One day a party of her friends were bemoaning the fact that there was no quick, practical way of separating short staple cotton from its seed. It took a slave ten hours from three pounds of the small tough seeds. Under those conditions no one in the South could afford to grow cotton, and yet in other parts of the world cotton was becoming a semiprecious commodity.

"Gentlemen," said Mrs. Greene, "tell your troubles to Mr. Whitney, he can make anything." No Sooner Said Within two weeks Whitney had produced a model of the cotton gin, an ingenious device which was destined to an ulti mately disastrous effect upon the people it enriched. In it, the cotton was dragged through a wire screen by means of toothed cylinders revolving toward each other. A revolving brush cleaned the cylinders.

and the seed fell into another compartment A later model, run by water power, could pro duce 300 to 1,000 pounds a day.
