According to my Pierce piano atlas, 12th edition on page 72, it tells me that it was made in the year 1908. I will list two years and the first serial number made in each of those years.
1908-----41000
1909-----43000
Two thousand pianos were built in 1908 or roughly 166 pianos a month. So assuming that that is the case, your piano was built about the middle of June, 1908.

What is the approx value of a Bush and Gerts Cabinet Grand piano serial number 10974?
Everything I've read on the web in the last day - I have a Bush & Gerts from 1907 - is it is basically worthless. A piano with your serial number was probably made ca. 1900 and if it plays good, has good action, and is tuned, it "might" be worth $200. Of course to have it tuned, it'll cost you $250 or so. Why is the value so low? No idea, but that's what I've seen on many pages. So unless you have an exceptionally beautiful B&G, it's basically worth the value of the wood...
How much is a monarch cabinet grand piano worth?
These don't go on sale very often so it can be hard to set a price. In the 1990s these instruments were often selling in the five hundred too one thousand dollar range. They were much more numerous then and today, for some reason, are hardly to be found at all.Bush & Gerts and Chicago were the major manufacturers of these instruments but the market for them is a peculiar one. I believe that somewhere in the thousand dollar area is a reasonable value. Some people may try to convince you it is worth less butconsideringthe age and workmanship of these instruments this would seem unreasonable.
Date of manufacture of Bush & Gerts piano 65859?
Many pianos will have a 4, 5 or 6 digit serial number to identify the age of the piano.

What are some desirable characteristics of hereford cattle?
Santa Gerts are known for their hardiness in hot humid weather like that down in the southern states, and have a high resistance to heat and ticks. They are also known for their great calving ease, mothering ability, and milking ability. Gerts show improved beef quality over the Brahman breed (thanks to the Shorthorn breeding), and are able to put on weight easily and efficiently in both the feedlot and on the pasture.
What do breeders look for in beef cows?
There really is no best breed to raise. The best breed that you can raise depends on your location (which includes topography, climate and vegetation), your operational and managerial goals and objectives, your philosophies and experiences, as well as what kind of market you are looking to get into. There are two types of cattle farming: dairy and beef. In dairy, there is only one type of farming, and that's raising dairy cows and heifers for milk production. In the beef industry, however, there are four types of operations that you can get into in raising cattle: Seedstock/Purebred operation, Commercial Cow-calf or cow-yearling operation, backgrounding/stocker heifers or steers, and feedlot. All four (or five) operations involve farming cattle, except that the last two involve buying cattle from cow-calf producers and selling them when they are ready to be sold (i.e., have reached their target weight). Stocker/backgrounding involves purchasing weaned calves and feeding them in a high-quality forage-only diet (involving 80% forage and 20% grain, and/or grazing them on good-quality pasture) then selling them when they reach a weight between 800 and 1000 lbs. Feedlot is the terminal feeding process where cattle are fed a high-quality grain diet (80% grain and 20% forage) for a few months until they are sold to the meat packers to be slaughtered. The cow-calf or cow-yearling operation involves raising breeding cows (and a few bulls) to give birth to calves that are going to be raised for beef. Cow-calf involves calves being sold at weaning time (when they're around 6 to 8 months of age) after they've been born and raised on the milk from their dams; cow-yearling involves the same steps as cow-calf, except the calves are NOT sold at weaning time, but instead are weaned and fed separately as stocker/backgrounder/feeder calves until they are yearlings (between 10 and 18 months of age). Seedstock is the most challenging and demanding type of operation in the beef cattle industry since it involves raising top-quality cows and bulls to calve out heifers and bulls that are sold to other cattle producers that need them in their breeding program. You have a more flexible breeding program when you have a cow-calf or cow-yearling operation, since you can have two calving periods (spring and fall), or choose to calve in the winter, spring, summer or fall, so long as the time you wean coincides with market prices so you can get top dollar for your calves. All a commerical producer has to worry about is whether the calves will sell well at selling time. Seedstock, on the other hand, are less flexible since bulls and heifers are needing to be sold in the spring when they're yearlings, which means having calving in the winter/early spring. You also need to advertise, show and know your breed in order to be successful at selling any of your cattle. So with all that in mind, you need to choose a breed that will work for you and your operation. If you're willing to spend the extra money and time to pamper and care for your cattle and you want to raise cows and calves, then such breeds as Simmental and Charolais will work for you. If you are not wanting to spend as much time worrying about calving ability and mothering ability and have a ranch that requires cows to be able to care for themselves and their calves, then Angus, Shorthorn, Hereford, Murray Grey, Beefmasters, Santa Gerts, etc. are the best breeds for you. Also keep in mind of not only calving ease, mothering ability, calf vigour and milking ability, but also of docility, forage convertability, fertility, and ability to grow well on roughage-only for selecting the best breed for your operation. The type of forage you have on your operation DOES affect your decision: some breeds do better on scarcer, lower quality pastures than others, and other breeds are better for areas where forage quality is great every year, even in drought periods. Smaller cattle like Angus, Hereford and Shorthorn are best for poorer-quality areas, whereas other areas with relatively consistent good quality pasture are better for those breeds like Limousin, Salers, Charolais, Simmental, etc. And yet, even with the higher quality pastures, there are some folks who just don't like handling big cows. Even presence of or lack of horns can affect your decisions: a lot of breeds have a lot of polled animals, but these breeds that are historically horned can still have the potential to make some horned calves that have to be dealt with at pre-weaning. You may wish to stick with naturally hornless breeds like Angus or Murray Greys so you don't have to deal with the messy and stressful business of dehorning calves. Take note of the seasons and weather you have experienced in the past to determine the best breed for you. Southern climates that are hot and humid are best for Brahmans, Nellore, Nguni, etc., and, especially in the southern USA, other Brahman-based breeds are good like Brangus, Senepols, Santa Gertrudis, Beefmasters, Barzonas, etc. Up north requires breeds that are more adapted to colder climates and winter snows: these include most European breeds that have historically been raised in similar conditions. Markets also have a huge impact on your decisions for what breed is best. In most areas of the USA, Angus is a major breed to go for. However, there are many other breeds that are also following the black-fad, and you can even raise the breed you want, through a Angus bull in with your cows, then sell your calves as Angus Sourced calves to get a premium. An Angus bull on Hereford cows will also get your calves to sell for a premium since they are Angus-sired. However, other markets may be less inclined to go for Angus and may be directing more towards the red-coloured or brown-coloured cattle, which breeds like Simmental, Red Angus, Hereford, South Devon, Red Poll, Gelbvieh, etc. are great to raise to meet those market demands. And yet, you may just wish to sell your cattle through direct sales, which involve locally butchering your cattle and selling the meat directly to interested customers. With this type of marketing, you can raise any breed you want. With backgrounding and feedlot operations, you really have no choice as to what breed you want for feeding steers intended for slaughter. Really, any animal of any breed that is healthy and can be fed is what you need to look for to buy and sell cattle for your backgrounding or feedlot operation. With dairy operations, it's all too straight forward. You need to have cows that are high-producing and consistant milk producers. The only three popular dairy breeds (in North America, at least) that you have to choose from (or use all three, as some dairy farmers do) are Holstein, Jersey and Brown Swiss. You may choose to incorporate or raise other less-popular dairy breeds like Dutch Belted, Ayrshire, Guernsey, Canadian or Randall, depending on whether you are more interested in being a part of keeping these rare breeds alive or not. Lastly, you need to take a look at your plans for your cattle operation and what your goals are for that operation. Do your research, make up a business plan of some sort, and don't just focus on one breed that you "may" want to raise, because that may not be the breed you want when all is said and done. Fincances, marketing, seasons best for breeding, weaning and selling, feeding/pasture management, and labour are all important things to remember when choosing the breed you want for your cattle farm. See the related link below for a list of and information on many different breeds of cattle.
