No output from periodic

I have a periodic that runs every 15 minutes.  I have 5 scripts in the
directory that it processes.  Most of the time, the 5 scripts don't have to
do anything, and thus don't have any output.  When that happens, periodic
outputs 'No output from the 5 files processed'.

Is there a way to make periodic not output anything so that I don't get an
email from cron every 15 minutes?

TIA

Elliot
