Samuel Crompton's MULE
Invented in 1779 by British entrepreneur Samuel Crompton, the Mule was a machine designed to spin yarn so fine it could be used to make the fabric muslin. As he did not have the money to buy a patent, he had the option to either destroy his machine or make it public and recieve as much money for allowing other yarn producers to use.
The demand for cotton does rise, because 1. in the summer people like wearing cotton clothes (it is cooler) and 2. it grows in abundance during the summer months.
Cotton continues to be the number one fiber in the world today. The demand for cotton product rises to manifold during the summer season.
