To take an example, therefore, from a very trifling manufacture,

but one in which the division of labour has been very often taken

notice of, the trade of a pin-maker: a workman not educated to

this business (which the division of labour has rendered a

distinct trade), nor acquainted with the use of the machinery

employed in it (to the invention of which the same division of

labour has probably given occasion), could scarce, perhaps, with

his utmost industry, make one pin in a day, and certainly could

not make twenty. But in the way in which this business is now

carried on, not only the whole work is a peculiar trade, but it

is divided into a number of branches, of which the greater part

are likewise peculiar trades.
