GETTYSBURG.

The fraternizing of Union and Con-
federate soldiers at Gettysburg is really
nothing new. "Yanks" and Johnny
Rebs" used to meet in pleasant fashion
during the war, whenever they had a
chance. 1t was one of the common
places of the great conflict that the
soldiers seemed to realize that they
were not truly enemies. This was a
matter of establishment to the foreign
officers who were connected with the
Union army and who had never seen
anything like it. The Count of Paris
writes about it more than once in his
famous history of the war. In his
account OF the occasional truces during
the siege of Vicksburg, in the third
volume of his book. this interesting
passage is found:
Favored by these intervals of truce,
generally nocturnal, the two lines of
skirmishers would begin with an in
terchange of news at short distance;
then they drew nearer to converse
more at ease and enter into political
discussions; at times they would be-
come so thrOughlY mixed up that the
officers of both parties were Obliged
to come to an understanding for the
purpose of drawing a line between
their respective forces. But after
having thus Welded to the cravings of
humanity and forgotten their cruel
trade, these same men would take
up their muskets again, ready at the
least alarm to resume the fight
One may imagine the officers, on the
occasion of these gatherings, shouting
to the men: Here, you fellows, get
back where you belong" and kindly
sorting out the blue from the gray. 1t
is undoubtedly true, however, that
officers were seldom present during
these reunions. The soldiers say that
they were inclined to stand on their
dignity, and to begin to shoot. if the
officers came around. But if there
were no officers within sight, the men
were very apt to remember that they
were brothers before they were
enemles-and to anticipate the time
when they were to become brothers
again.

THE PEOPLES FORUM.
Work of the School of Horticulture.
To the Editor of The Republican:

To the Editor of The Republican,:
The School of Horticulture of the
Maryland Agricultural College and Ex-
pertinent Station, is arranging to con-
duct as much demonstration work as
possible in the various phases of horti-
culture throughout the State this sum-
mer and fall. Fruit packing demonsta-
lions will be held wherever there is a
request for same from growers. 1t is
the aim of the Institution to show by
practical demonstration how our horti-
cultural products can best be handled
for the greatest income to the growers.
Demonstrations in summer pruning of
fruit trees will also be held where re-
quested by a group of growers.
In the Vegetable Department, special
work is being done on the tomato,
potato and canteloupe crops. Several
lines of work in spraying, fertilizing
and seed selection are being conducted
as both demonstration and investiga-
ton with these crops in various sections
of the State.
In the Landscape Department, rural
schools and country homes are being
decorated as demonstrations for the COM
munltv. There is much that can be
done in identifying our rural schools
and country homes at minimum cost.
Every farmer should aim to have the
appearance of his home made as attrac,
tive as possible.
The School of Horticulture is also
commencing thorough survey of>the
horticultural industries of the State
Any person who is interested in promot
ing these lines of work, and desires tC
cooperate with the School of Horticul
ture, should communicate with thi:

tural College & Experiment Station
