Left of the default of bar labels:
  graph hbar (mean) trunk turn  mpg , scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
blabel(name ,pos(inside))

Left end of the bars:
  graph hbar (mean) trunk turn  mpg , scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
blabel(name ,pos(base))

If you mean the name of variable and not the label "mean of ..." then
use the -nolabel- option with the -blabel()- option.

Another way: left of the categorical axis (using Nick's -lstack-):
  sysuse auto,clear
  lstack trunk turn mpg, into(var) clear
  graph hbar (mean) var , over(_stack) scheme(s1mono) legend(off)
