New Inventions
New Inventions
   A barrage of new inventions were brought to the
north in the 1800s.Visitors from of other countries
even exclaimed that their is not a northern laborer has
not invented a tool or machine. A man named Elias
Howe invented the sewing machine in 1846. Isaac
Singer made improvement on Howe’s sewing machine
only a few years later. After sewing machines were able
to be purchased by clothing makers, the shirt making
processed became quicker and more efficient.
Farm Machines
Farm Machines
    In 1825, the manufacturing of an iron plow with interchangeable
parts began by the inventor Jethro Wood. Later, John Deere improved
on the plow when he added a lightweight steel plow, instead of
heavyweight plows that had to be tugged with slow-moving oxen.
Inventions such as these made work for farmers much easier. One
machine known as the McCormick’s Reaper mowed wheat and other
crops to reduce manual labor. This horse-drawn machine could do the
work of five people using hand tools.

   Other farming machines such as the mechanical drill, a threshing
machine, and a horse-drawn hay rake helped farmers use fewer hands
to raise grain. Therefore, farmworkers traveled west to settle their own
farms or traveled north to find jobs in factory cities.
The Telegraph
The Telegraph
   The telegraph1, also known as the “talking wire”, sent a code, which was
made up of dashes, dots, and spaces. This code, called Morse Code, was
named after Samuel F.B. Morse, for whom received a patent for this new
invention. Morse set up a wire on May 24th, 1844, from the Supreme Court
Chamber in Washington D.C. to Baltimore, to try this new invention. He
typed in a short message and received one back from the operator in
Baltimore in just a few seconds. This task was successful with the help of
Congress, who gave funds to pay for the expenses.

   The telegraph was an instant success helping news and information on
trade to travel quicker, also helping businesses to thrive. Soon telegraph
companies sprang up across the nation. Thousands of miles of wire spread
across the United States.

         1. Telegraph- A device that sent electrical signals along a wire.
The First Railroads
The First Railroads
    First built in the early 1800s, railroads were used to
provide transportation to canals. Railroads soon became
more practical, and were slowly used for more advanced
transportation. Railroads that originally used animals to pull
their cars, became steam-powered locomotive2. This
steam-powered engine was known as the Rocket, and had
the ability to travel 30 miles per hour.

             2. Locomotive - engine that pulls a railroad train
Early Difficulties
Early Difficulties
     At first there was difficulties, for not all Americans favored the
idea of new railroads. People who worked the wagons on the old
trains and people who invest in canals thought it was competition
for losing their investments. Also, they were not always safe
because of the risk of breaking down. They were also fire hazards
because of the burning embers that the smokestacks produced.
Accidents were often caused by weak grounds that trains traveled
on, and sometimes only one track was set, calling for many head on
collisions.
A Railroad Boom
A Railroad Boom
    Slowly, improvements were made that made the use of
railroads faster and much safer. Sturdier bridges and more
reliable, solid road beds were created by engineers. Iron rails
began to replace the jobs done by wooden rails, and nearly all
problems and obstacles were removed by railroad builders.
Railroads were present all over the country by the 1850s.
Major railroad centers sprang up including New York,
Cincinnati, and Chicago. These major lines and cities were
found primarily in the North and West. The south region of
the U.S. had much less tracks than the other areas.
Yankee Clippers
Yankee Clippers
    As the railroad population increased in the United States, so did commerce,
both within the states and between other nations. In the Northeast seaports,
captains loaded their ships and sailed all over the world. An element important
to sea trade was speed. One man, John Griffiths, even launched one of the
clipper ships3 , the Rainbow in 1845, which was built for clipping swiftly across
the seas. Clipper ships such as the Rainbow, broke every speed-related record
in the 1840s. One clipper only took 81 days to make a trip from New York to
China that usually took 5 months. Overall, the clipper’s speed helped the U.S.
win a gigantic part of the world’s sea-trade from the 1840s to the 1850s.

  The golden age of the clipper ships did not last long though. Iron ships came
to be in Britain later in the 1800s.These vessels carried more goods and glided
over the ocean even faster than American clippers. Still, yankee clippers
revolutionized over sea-trading throughout the world.


 3. Clipper Ships- sleek vessels that had tall masts and huge sails that caught every gust of wind to clip
                                        swiftly through the water.
The Northern Economy
      Expands
The Northern Economy
          Expands
  Another industrial expansion in America at the time was the use of steam power
instead of water power. Factory machines that ran on steam were very powerful, and
cheaper to run. Plus, with the use of steam power, factories did not always have to be
built along smooth rivers.They could be put virtually anywhere! In addition, newer
machinery gave the Americans the chance to produce more goods for a price lower
than normal.This changed life in many homes as families began to but factory made
clothes instead of making them.

   Railroads were also beneficial because factory owners were able to deliver large
sums of raw materials and finished products fast, easy, and cheap. Also, these tracks
linked factories and cities with other distant areas.These areas became home to
several new markets for factory goods. Railroad growth even affected farming in the
North. Railroads brought cheap goods to New England from the Western states. Also,
farmers in New England were unable to compete with the new food source. As a
result, these farmers left their homes to work in factories, stores, and even boats.

  • 3. Industry in the North By: Michael DeStefano, Jameson Hensen, and Ryan Dearie Main Idea: As the northern economy grew, new inventions and faster transportation changed the way goods were manufactured and shipped
  • 5. Table of Contents *New Inventions *Farm Machines *The Telegraph *The First Railroads *Early Difficulties *A Railroad Boom *Yankee Clippers *The Northern Economy Expands *Quiz *Quiz (Continued) *Homework
  • 7. New Inventions A barrage of new inventions were brought to the north in the 1800s.Visitors from of other countries even exclaimed that their is not a northern laborer has not invented a tool or machine. A man named Elias Howe invented the sewing machine in 1846. Isaac Singer made improvement on Howe’s sewing machine only a few years later. After sewing machines were able to be purchased by clothing makers, the shirt making processed became quicker and more efficient.
  • 9. Farm Machines In 1825, the manufacturing of an iron plow with interchangeable parts began by the inventor Jethro Wood. Later, John Deere improved on the plow when he added a lightweight steel plow, instead of heavyweight plows that had to be tugged with slow-moving oxen. Inventions such as these made work for farmers much easier. One machine known as the McCormick’s Reaper mowed wheat and other crops to reduce manual labor. This horse-drawn machine could do the work of five people using hand tools. Other farming machines such as the mechanical drill, a threshing machine, and a horse-drawn hay rake helped farmers use fewer hands to raise grain. Therefore, farmworkers traveled west to settle their own farms or traveled north to find jobs in factory cities.
  • 11. The Telegraph The telegraph1, also known as the “talking wire”, sent a code, which was made up of dashes, dots, and spaces. This code, called Morse Code, was named after Samuel F.B. Morse, for whom received a patent for this new invention. Morse set up a wire on May 24th, 1844, from the Supreme Court Chamber in Washington D.C. to Baltimore, to try this new invention. He typed in a short message and received one back from the operator in Baltimore in just a few seconds. This task was successful with the help of Congress, who gave funds to pay for the expenses. The telegraph was an instant success helping news and information on trade to travel quicker, also helping businesses to thrive. Soon telegraph companies sprang up across the nation. Thousands of miles of wire spread across the United States. 1. Telegraph- A device that sent electrical signals along a wire.
  • 13. The First Railroads First built in the early 1800s, railroads were used to provide transportation to canals. Railroads soon became more practical, and were slowly used for more advanced transportation. Railroads that originally used animals to pull their cars, became steam-powered locomotive2. This steam-powered engine was known as the Rocket, and had the ability to travel 30 miles per hour. 2. Locomotive - engine that pulls a railroad train
  • 15. Early Difficulties At first there was difficulties, for not all Americans favored the idea of new railroads. People who worked the wagons on the old trains and people who invest in canals thought it was competition for losing their investments. Also, they were not always safe because of the risk of breaking down. They were also fire hazards because of the burning embers that the smokestacks produced. Accidents were often caused by weak grounds that trains traveled on, and sometimes only one track was set, calling for many head on collisions.
  • 17. A Railroad Boom Slowly, improvements were made that made the use of railroads faster and much safer. Sturdier bridges and more reliable, solid road beds were created by engineers. Iron rails began to replace the jobs done by wooden rails, and nearly all problems and obstacles were removed by railroad builders. Railroads were present all over the country by the 1850s. Major railroad centers sprang up including New York, Cincinnati, and Chicago. These major lines and cities were found primarily in the North and West. The south region of the U.S. had much less tracks than the other areas.
  • 19. Yankee Clippers As the railroad population increased in the United States, so did commerce, both within the states and between other nations. In the Northeast seaports, captains loaded their ships and sailed all over the world. An element important to sea trade was speed. One man, John Griffiths, even launched one of the clipper ships3 , the Rainbow in 1845, which was built for clipping swiftly across the seas. Clipper ships such as the Rainbow, broke every speed-related record in the 1840s. One clipper only took 81 days to make a trip from New York to China that usually took 5 months. Overall, the clipper’s speed helped the U.S. win a gigantic part of the world’s sea-trade from the 1840s to the 1850s. The golden age of the clipper ships did not last long though. Iron ships came to be in Britain later in the 1800s.These vessels carried more goods and glided over the ocean even faster than American clippers. Still, yankee clippers revolutionized over sea-trading throughout the world. 3. Clipper Ships- sleek vessels that had tall masts and huge sails that caught every gust of wind to clip swiftly through the water.
  • 21. The Northern Economy Expands Another industrial expansion in America at the time was the use of steam power instead of water power. Factory machines that ran on steam were very powerful, and cheaper to run. Plus, with the use of steam power, factories did not always have to be built along smooth rivers.They could be put virtually anywhere! In addition, newer machinery gave the Americans the chance to produce more goods for a price lower than normal.This changed life in many homes as families began to but factory made clothes instead of making them. Railroads were also beneficial because factory owners were able to deliver large sums of raw materials and finished products fast, easy, and cheap. Also, these tracks linked factories and cities with other distant areas.These areas became home to several new markets for factory goods. Railroad growth even affected farming in the North. Railroads brought cheap goods to New England from the Western states. Also, farmers in New England were unable to compete with the new food source. As a result, these farmers left their homes to work in factories, stores, and even boats.
