  1. According to this related StackOverflow answer How do I change the scratch message in Emacs?, you can suppress the message by setting

    (setq initial-scratch-message nil)

    in your configuration. If you don't already have a personal configuration file (usually ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el you can create one, using emacs or otherwise, and simply paste the command in verbatim, then save and exit. Next time you start emacs, the scratch buffer should be empty.
