Steamboats By: Wesley Olsen, and Taylor Goldberg

14 The Beginning In 1803 Robert Fulton tested the first steamboat in France, several years later he tested the first full sized steamboat. It was called the Clermont. The steamboat could move upriver easily and did not rely on wind power which meant they could carried more goods and people with additional efficiency They burned coal to fuel the engine.

15 improvements Henry shreve created a steamboat with an engine on the upper deck allowing the boat to draw in less water and navigate easier and safer In 1824 the court reinforced the federal governments authority to regulate the river/water control over states ending monopolies

16 The Future The steam boat made a big step for us InTechnology and economy which keeps us moving forward. Steamboats has allowed us to be able to make improvements and better means of transportations

18 Eli Whitney Eli Whitney: inventor of Cotton Gin
Revolutionized cotton production Increased speed of production Powered by Water Mills Wanted to keep secret

19 Cotton Gin Extracted Seeds Processed Cotton into string
Produced more cotton than 20 slaves Reduced Jobs

20 Production Rate

21 Pros & Cons Pros Cons Cleans 50 lbs of cotton per day
Uses Water Mill Power Can work all day without stopping Reduces Jobs Collects seeds from cotton automatically Prolonged Slavery Comprised 2/3 of all American exports Cotton Gin needs high maintenance without Water Mill

22 GAME Who was the inventor of the cotton gin? Eli Whitney Mike Wisousky

Cotton Gin By: Kristin Kroh and Jackie Salantri

27 The Cotton Gin was invented by Eli Whitney in 1793.
The Cotton Gin is a machine that removes seeds from short staple cotton. It use’s a hand crank cylinder with wired teeth, that separates the seeds and cotton fibers. Person = 1 pound/day Cotton Gin= 50 pound/day

28 Eli Whitney was not the first person to invent the cotton gin machine.
The downside to the cotton gin was the effect it had on slavery. The more the cotton gins the more demand of slaves and workers. Another downside, was people began to copy his idea of the cotton gin, selling it around the world.

29 -1836 cotton was 2/3 of all American exports.

Temperance Act Jenny Salvatore Kelly Viola

39 Temperance Act The temperance movement was marked by an undercurrent of ethnic and religious hostility. Some of the first advocates were people of Anglo-Saxon heritage who associated alcohol with the growing number of Catholic immigrants from Ireland and the European continent. Supposedly, the Catholics were loud and boisterous as a result of too much drinking. According to these activists, the consumption of alcohol was responsible for many personal and societal problems, including unemployment, absenteeism in the workplace, and physical violence.

40 Temperance act Congress enacted the Lever Act of 1917 (40 Stat. 276) to outlaw the use of grain in the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, and many state and local governments passed laws prohibiting the distribution and consumption of alcohol. The Temperance Movement began in the Nineteenth Century. It had an unprecedented agreement to reform the agitation. They accepted the consumption of alcoholic beverages. It was an attack of the ignited popular enthusiasm. This all took place in the United Sates.

41 Women's Groups Groups such as the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) and the Anti-Saloon League were at the forefront of the onslaught on alcohol. Members of these groups spoke publicly in favor of Prohibition and lobbied elected officials for laws banning the consumption of alcohol. Some of the more active members disrupted business at saloons and liquor stores
