וכן שני כלים. לרבנן אצטריכא ליה. ולא זו אף זו קתני, לא מיבעיא במנה ומאתים דליכא פסידא דשבירת כלי, אמרו רבנן נותן לזה מנה ולזה מנה, אלא אפילו בשני כלים דאיכא פסידא שצריך לשבר הכלי הגדול כדי לתת ממנו דמי הקטן, ולכשיבא אליהו נמצא שבעל הכלי הגדול הפסיד שנשבר הכלי שלו, וסלקא דעתך אמינא דבהא מודו רבנן לר׳ יוסי שהכל יהא מונח עד שיבא אליהו. קמשמע לן. והלכה כחכמים:

בבא מציעא פרק ג׳ משנה ו׳
Bartenura
אבודים – through mice or decay
לא יגע בהן – to see them since each person wants his Kab from the nine Kabim of his fellow. His Kab is beloved to him because he had toiled for it, from the nine Kabim of others that he would purchase with their monetary value if he would sell them. And the Rabbis said that he should not touch them, for they have not lost other than up to the diminution that is explicitly mentioned in our Mishnah: for wheat and rice Nine half-Kabim to a Kor, etc. But if they lost more than their diminution [in value], the Sages agree with Rabban Shimon ben Gamaliel that they sell them in the Jewish court. And the Halakha is according to the Sages.
אבודים. על ידי עכברים או רקבון:
לא יגע בהן. למכרן לפי שרוצה אדם בקב שלו מתשעה קבין של חבירו. קב שלו חביב עליו ע״י שעמל בו, מתשעה קבין של אחרים שיקח בדמיהן אם ימכרם. ולא אמרו רבנן הרי זה לא יגע בהן, אלא שלא אבדו אלא עד כדי חסרונן המפורש במשנתינו, לחטים ולאורז תשעה חצאי קבין לכור וכו׳. אבל אם אבדו יותר מכדי חסרונן, מודים חכמים לרבן שמעון בן גמליאל דמוכרן בבית דין. והלכה כחכמים:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

וכן שני כלים – For the Rabbis, it is necessary for him. For not only this, but also that are taught. Not that it is necessary for one to have a Maneh and the other to have two-hundred Maneh, for there is no loss through the breaking of a utensil, the rabbis said that he should give to this one a Maneh and to that one a Maneh, but even with two utensils where there is loss that it is necessary to break to larger utensil to give from it the monetary value of the smaller one, and when Elijah comes, it is found that the owner of the larger utensil loses when his utensil is broken. And I might think that in this the Sages agree with Rabbi Yosi that everything is left aside until Elijah will come, but it comes to teach us the exact opposite. And the Halakha is like the Sages.
