Editing George Washington Carver

'''{{wp|George Washington Carver}}''' (c. 1864 – January 5, 1943) was an [[United States of America|American]] agricultural scientist and inventor most notable for the many uses that he found for the peanut. He was born in the 1860's as a slave, but he was freed at a young age after the end of the {{wp|American Civil War}} in 1865<ref>Kremer, Gary R. "Early Years."

After graduating, he became a teacher at the {{wp|Tuskegee University|Tuskegee Institute}} in [[Tuskegee]], {{wp|Alabama}}, at the request of headmaster [[Booker T. Washington]], and in his time there, he spent many years studying the peanut and other plants, alongside the development of {{wp|crop rotation}} to enrich the soil after it was dried out from years of {{wp|cotton}} farming.
