Every Day the Earth gains more time. It is only about three minutes that are gained each day, after the winter solstice.
Gain... compared to what? Please clarify what you are comparing with what.
Its not a constant value, from the winter solstice (shortest day, Dec 21) the increase is very slight rising to a maximum increase per day at the spring equinox ( Mar 20 ) As a rough guide, the total increase from mid december ( 7 hrs. 2 mins daylight) to mid March (11 hrs 48 mins daylight) is 296 mins. so that gives you 286 mins increase in 91 days = average increase of (286 / 91) 3.14 minutes per day
Daylight increase is not a linear function. It is very low at each solstice and equinox, slowly increases to mid term and then decreases again. Latitude also needs to be taken into account.
Different latitudes have different daylight hours. The 2014 summer solstice in New York will see the sun rise at 5:24 a.m. on June 21 and set at 8:30 p.m. after 15 hours, six minutes of daylight.

Same as the rest of the planet - about four minutes per day.
No matter where you are on the planet - the day lengthens by four minutes each day, after the winter equinox, up to the summer solstice.
Every Day the Earth gains more time. It is only about three minutes that are gained each day, after the winter solstice.
Approximately 4 minutes per day up to the summer solstice... then the day reduces by 4 minutes to the winter solstice.
The amount of daylight gained between December 21 and December 22 is measured in seconds. By the first week in January, it may be as much as a minute. From February 1 to February 2, 2 minutes, and by March 21, 4 minutes per day. Then it begins to decrease until June 21, when the difference goes back to zero.
The amount of daylight on August 1st will depend on where you are in the world. In Indiana on August 1st, there will be 14 hours and 10 minutes of daylight, which will translate to 850 minutes of daylight.
