Out off a gravel road northeast of the town of Beggs, just past the point county services end, stands the kingdom Perry McDonald built – all thanks to a generally despised tree.
According to McDonald, if state legislators continue on a charge this session to eradicate the eastern redcedar ― and only eradicate it ― they are making a big mistake and overlooking the potential for jobs, business creation and income for landowners.
