That is pretty unusual. What is the history on the tractor? Is it new to you? Has any extra hydaulics been added lately? How quick does it blow out the filter packing? Are there any smashed oil lines on the tractor? In addition to TxJim's suggestion, You might try removing the transmission pressure control valve from the shift cover. The oil has to pass through it after going through the filter. It could be stuck. #16 - 21 make up the trans pressure control valve.

Actually, I would recommend removing the entire shift cover and disassemble it. Once, we had a gasket from the end of a filter come loose and got sucked up into one of those passages and caused the exact problem you are having.
