The boards of supervisors, if satisfied that the bids offered are materially more expensive to the taxpayers of the state than prevails in other adjoining states, may require such bids to be lowered and if the resident bidders refuse to lower such bids, the boards of supervisors may make temporary contracts with printers and stationers outside the state until such time as contracts satisfactory to the boards of supervisors can be made with resident printers and stationers.
