From the JDK 1.1.6 docs.... (It is the Calendar class, what Date was
deprecated to.)

public abstract void add(int field, int amount)

Date Arithmetic function.

Adds the specified (signed) amount of time to the given time field, based on
the calendar's rules.

For example, to subtract 5 days from the current time of the calendar, you
can achieve it by calling:  add(Calendar.DATE, -5).

Parameters:
field - the time field.
amount - the amount of date or time to be added to the field.
