Sprinkle half of salt mixture over inside of cavity. Place rosemary and garlic inside cavity., With fingers, carefully loosen skin from the turkey breast; rub half of the butter under the skin. Sprinkle skin with remaining salt mixture. Melt remaining butter; drizzle over turkey. Skewer turkey openings; tie drumsticks together. Place breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan., Bake at 325° for 2-3/4 to 3-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 180°, basting occasionally with pan drippings. (Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.) Cover and let stand for 20 minutes before carving.
