Thanks to Juri Linkov, I borrowed the following code from his nice
site
http://www.jurta.org/emacs
(add-hook 'after-init-hook
(lambda ()
;; Show home directory on left pane, and last visited file on right
(split-window-horizontally)
(dired (my-home ?h)))
;; Note that 3-rd argument of this `add-hook' should be `t'
;; to append the call of the `dired' after other hooked functions,
;; most importantly after `desktop-read'.

The above code works all right for me and does split the window as you
asked. Hopefully, that may help you.
