Arlen,
I have the same engine in my Huskee brand riding mower, and I've had the same problem you've described here. The valve train in this engine is really poorly designed.
I finally fixed mine last year. I replaced the rocker arm, the push rod, and the funky little bracket that is supposed to keep the push rod aligned with the end of the rocker arm.

So far, I haven't had to readjust the valve clearance since I did this stuff.
Hope you find a solution for your particular problem.
