Further can be used as a verb, farther cannot, as to further a cause, or to advance it. Further may also be used to mean 'additionally', as in 'furthermore'.

A ball may be thrown farther, but not further. That's English for you.

"'farther' is more appropriate than 'further' when describing physically measurable things." please tell me why?

The boots print is excellent. I hope you'll be able to reproduce all of them in your translation.
