Because you blow with one and you strum the strings on the other. The reverberations of the metal makes the sound in the horn while it is the wood resonating to the strings that makes the sound for the Ukulele.

How does the ukulele produce sound?

When the strings of the ukulele are plucked or strummed the vibrations transfer to the front of the ukulele through the bridge and the nut vibrating the neck and hollow body of the instrument. The sound hole on the front of the body helps to project the tone of the ukulele outward making it more easily heard. The larger the ukulele the space for resonance and louder the projection. A soprano ukulele would be much quieter than a tenor ukulele even though both are tuned to the same notes.
