TABLE. 



Equation of Time for every Day in the Year JS28. 



The above Table contains the equation of time for leap year; but the 

 equation ma.y be found for other years as follows. For the first year 

 after leap year take one-fourth of the difference between the equations 

 for the given and preceding days, w hich is to be added to the equation 

 for the given day, if at that time the equation is decreasing ; but sub- 

 tracted if it is increasing. In the second after leap year, take half the 

 difference between the equations ; and in the third, take three-fourths 

 of the difference, and apply this correction in the same manner as be- 

 fore.
