Usage notes
Some usage guides distinguish (farther) and (further), with farther'' referring to distance, and ''further'' referring to degree or time.Grammar Girl: Further Versus Farther]Others, such as the OED, recommend ''farther'' as a comparative form of ''far'' and ''further for use when it is not comparative.[http://www.dailywritingtips.com/farther-further-whats-the-difference/ Daily Writing Tips – Farther, Further: What’s the Difference? However, most authorities consider the two interchangeable in most or all circumstances, and historically they have not been distinguished.
