You don't. You may find some third-party software that will, however. Try Auto Mute.
Alternatively, you can try this:
I think this is the best and simplest solution. Open a Terminal window and type (or copy/paste) the following to turn down the startup noise:
sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume="%00"
Press RETURN.
And to restore it to the original value type:
sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume
Press RETURN.
That's all folks.

Kappy has a great solution, but do keep in mind that the startup chime is a diagnostic tool so it is not the best thing to turn off.
Confession: I found it by Googling. 😉
Apple doesn't encourage you turning off the beep sound

Kappy... Thank You!
Is there a way to lower the start up chime to about 10%? Maybe just change the percentage value?? "%10" ?
You can just turn down the volume by going to Systems Preferences > Sound and lower the volume slider…there is not a separate control for only the startup chime.
