Abstract
FOR many years after it was first reported in 1898 the so-called ‘spike’ disease of the sandal tree remained an enigma. Investigations were carried out in a desultory fashion, but no information of value resulted. It is only owing to its alarmingly rapid spread in many parts of the Madras Presidency and elsewhere in Mysore and Coorg that the work of the last few years has resulted in methods of control, the results of careful research work, being successfully elaborated and put into force.
