We recommend using the textual changes suggested by the Bach and the marginal notes of the Vilna Shas. This section is devoted to any OTHER important corrections that Acharonim have pointed out in the Gemara, Rashi and Tosfos.
[1] Rashi 31a DH Zil l'Chashivusei ד"ה זיל לחשיבותיה:
The words "Yelech l'Chashivusei, Achar ha'Chashivus she'Bachar Lo" ילך לחשיבותיה אחר החשיבות שבחר לו
should be "Yelech ha'Chashivus, Achar she'Bachar Lo" ילך החשיבות אחר שבחר לו
[2] Rashi DH Shadei Muma b'Chulhu ד"ה שדי מומא בכלהו:
The words "Chal Al ha'Mum" חל על המום

[3] Rashi 31b DH Davar ha'Nishom ד"ה דבר הנישום:
The word "Nimkar me'Chayim" נמכר מחיים

8)[line 36]הנייתן לבעליםHANAYASAN L'VE'ALIM- their value belongs to the owner (in contrast to Hekdesh; see next entry). In the case of Bechor, the Kohen is considered to be the owner, and in the case of Ma'aser, the Yisrael is considered to be the owner. We prefer to uphold the respect due to Kodshim and prohibit these types of Kodshim from being sold in a public marketplace and from being weighed in the manner in which Chulin is weighed, and we are not concerned that the animals will be sold for less than their value (since the only one suffering a loss is their owner, and not Hekdesh).
9)[line 36]הנייתן להקדשHANAYASAN L'HEKDESH- their value belongs to Hekdesh. Therefore, we want them to be sold at the highest possible price so that Hekdesh will benefit, and for this purpose we even compromise on the respect due to Kodshim (and permit them to be sold in the public marketplace and weighed with ordinary weights).
