which he had made the foundation of his fortune.
 But it is an interesting thing, not generally known, that while Rockefeller made great fortune out of the oil industry, by far the greater part of his fortune was made after he had ceased to be an oil magnate, after he had re- tired in fact.
 When Rockefeller retired at the turn of the century, he was worth, probably, a hundred million dol lars-an immense fortune for those times. Later he accumu- lated a fortune that was believed to be as much as billion.
 INVESTMENTS
 PAID OFF
 But the striking thing is that man, in one of the most active acquisitive careers, was able to amass fortune of a hundred mill lion, while from sheer investment he made almost 10 times as much.
 Rockefeller made his fortune out of petroleum when its chief product was kerosene. It was only after his retirement that gasoline
 became an important product. The
 automobile was coming along
 slowly. But after 1910 the auto-
 mobile became an 0mniverOus
 user of gasoline and very soon the
 kerosene business was small along
 side it.
 To most people who follow such affairs it was surprise that he died possessed of so much as $27, 100000, large though that may seem. It was generally supposed that he had divested himself of all but few million-perhapS three or four. By various means he had managed to pipe his vast fortune into the hands of his son and daughters and foundations. He kept a small amount to keep the wolf from the door.
 PLAYED WITH
 STOCK MARKET
 l Also he liked to fool around with the stock market. He kept an acc tive account on the stock market all the time, buying and selling not so much because he needed the money but in order to keep from growing rusty. Whether he was a good trader is not known to the public. Many years ago Andrew Carnegie said of John D. that he was the poorest stock market op- orator he ever knew. AS 8 mat ter of fact Rockefeller never made much of his fortune that way.
 He was not part of what was known as the Standard Oil gang, which was headed by his brother. William, and Henry H. Rogers He did occasionally go into some of their adventures. with a con- tribution. But he was never an active participant in all those hectic and daring plunges which made Rogers famous. Rockefeller was not a speculator,, he was es- sentially an industrialiSt.
 And when he died he had con- verted what he had left almost entirely into the most conservative investments.
