Article: You can use your hand, but an actual seed spreader is best, because it gives you more even coverage. You should spread the seeds so that you have approximately one seed per 1 square inch (2.5 square centimeters) of space. The package of seeds should tell you how many pounds of seed you should use per 1,000 square feet of planting area, to give you a better idea of how much seed you need for large areas.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Spread your seeds.

Problem: Article: For a week, keep a log of how much coffee, tea, soda, and chocolate you consume each day. This will give you an idea of if your caffeine intake is at an unhealthy level. 400 milligrams (the amount in four cups of coffee) of caffeine per day is usually considered safe for most adults. However, some people are more sensitive to it and should not even consume this much. If you consume caffeine and you have insomnia, restlessness, anxiety problems, fast heartbeat, headaches, muscle tremors, or extreme fidgeting you may be extra sensitive to caffeine and should cut back to little or no caffeine at all. This will allow you to avoid withdrawals or headaches. Caffeine is a drug that creates adrenaline surges, which your body gets used to. It could take a month to wean yourself from caffeine. If you are consuming a very high amount of caffeine, cut back slowly. Quitting quickly will cause withdrawal symptoms, like headaches. Too much refined sugar and foods with added processed sugar (candies, pop, cakes and cookies, some cereals) creates energy bursts and troughs, leaving you craving more. During the brief energy bursts, you are likely to fidget. Keep a log in a notebook, similar to your caffeine recordings, of how much refined sugar (candy, pop, cookies, etc.) you consume in a week. Fruit has some natural sugar, and this will help to slowly lower your intake of refined or artificial sugar because if you eat plenty of fruit you will crave other sugars less. Fruit is part of a healthy diet, and you should try to consume 4 servings (a serving is one piece of raw fruit the size of a baseball, or one cup of smaller fruits or 100% fruit juice) of fruit per day. If you are lacking in energy and turning to caffeine or refined sugar snacks to give you a boost, it may be because your diet is generally unhealthy. Be sure that you are consuming the right amount of a variety of vegetables, fruits, grains, and lean proteins each day. You should try to eat 4 servings of vegetables (one cup of raw or cooked veggies or vegetable juice, or 2 cups of leafy greens is one serving), 4 servings of fruit, 6-8 servings of whole grains (depending on age, gender, and activity level), 2-6 servings of lean protein (depending on age, gender, and activity level), and 2-3 servings (one cup) of dairy or dairy equivalents daily.
Summary: Consider how much caffeine you currently consume. Cut your cups of coffee in half, or cut 1 cup each week. Keep track of how much sugar you consume. Replace your sugary snacks with fruit. Give yourself healthy diet choices.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Dead, damaged or diseased wood should be removed starting with the origin of the damage. This may mean cutting an entire large area if it is all damaged or dead. You will know if an area is damaged or dead if it does not have leaves during growing season when the rest of the tree is in bloom. Removing dead or damaged branches is one of the few times it's okay to prune your tree in the spring or summer. If you have sprouts growing down near the bottom of the tree out of the main trunk, these are called "suckers" and are actually part of the root system, not the fruiting system on top. They don't have any purpose on your pear tree. Prune these spouts off right at their origin up against the trunk. If you see any suspiciously straight, vertical sprouts growing from a branch of your tree, that's a "water sprout." They look different from other branches because they occur on main branches, have no curve, are somewhat short, and grow straight up toward the sky. Water sprouts have no purpose on your tree and should be cut at their point of origin on the main branch they're growing out of. Fruiting spurs grow on branches that were originally grown two years previously, so you don't need to worry about them on very young trees. They look like smaller curved branches growing off a main branch, with little bud-like shapes, or fruit buds, at the tip. Fruiting spurs usually take 1 or 2 years to grow fruit. The year after fruiting, another 1 or 2 fruit buds will appear in that spot. After 6 or 7 years, the spur will become congested with fruit buds and then you can prune them to allow new fruiting spurs to grow elsewhere. The only other reason to cut them is if the branch is dead or damaged.

SUMMARY: Prune any dead or damaged branches. Cut sprouts coming from the base of the trunk. Remove straight vertical sprouts coming from main branches. Avoid cutting fruiting spurs most of the time.

Unlike most file types, DAT files can be created by virtually any program; as such, you'll need to know which program created the DAT file to figure out which program to use to open it. If you don't know which program was used to create the DAT file, you'll need to figure out which program to use before you can open the DAT file. Click or double-click the app icon of the program that was used to create the DAT file. Click and drag the DAT file onto the program's window to do so. Since your Mac usually won't view the DAT file as readable, you can't typically open the DAT file by using the File > Open menu in your selected program. This will attempt to open the DAT file in your program. In some cases, you'll receive a warning that the file's contents don't match its file extension (or similar). If so, click Yes or Open to prompt the DAT file to open. For example, opening an Excel-created DAT file in Excel may result in a prompt warning you that the file may be corrupted. You can click Yes to open the file anyway. If you want to avoid having to drag the DAT file into its program every time you want to open it, you can change the file's extension. Keep in mind that you must know the exact extension used for the DAT file, as changing the extension to use even a slightly different format (e.g., MP4 instead of AVI) can result in the file breaking: Select the DAT file. Click File, then click Get Info in the drop-down menu. Click the triangle next to the "Name & Extension" category. Uncheck the "Hide extension" box if necessary. Replace the dat extension with your file's extension in the file's current name. Press Return, then click Use .extension when prompted (e.g., for an XLSX document, you would click Use .xlsx here).

One-sentence summary --
Determine the program that created the DAT file. Open the program. Drag the DAT file into the program's window. Drop the DAT file. Confirm that you want to view the file if prompted. Change the DAT file's extension if necessary.
