When discussing a physical distance, the widely accepted rule is to use farther, as in "He went farther down the road." When discussing a symbolic distance or a degree or extent, as in "I wanted to discuss it further, but we didn't have time," further is used. Additionally, when used as a verb, further means to advance. So, you can “further a project” but you can’t farther a project, because farther doesn’t have a verb sense.
